Imo game is little too hard very early, then perfect until the end of Cyseal map, then you play few more hours, and - BOOM - you suddenly realize you are a god, and can annihilate everyone without problems. Certainly there are problems with balance.
I agree, and people (elsewhere, and obviously if you look above, here) are either blaming me for this (?) or saying that's how it should be (?). I don't think Larian agrees either... this isn't typical of the older school RPGs this game is styled after.
