The smartest thing Larian did was NOT change the armor system, even when casuals complained.
The armor system removes RNG, which is good. CC is no longer tied to dice rolls. If CC was still tied to dice rolls, you could beat any encounter in the game by savescumming until you got good CC rolls.
And yet people save scum now for crit chance. Because all the game has now is DPS and scoring the best critical trains guarantees you the best chance of winning.
Nothing has improved. The game has actually regressed. It's very difficult to like this game even with all the positives it has going for it.
I won't knock people who like it by saying they just want something braindead. That's what the game is. And if you really have a problem with that reroll some diversity in your group and see how easy tactician is.
I would take the original design over this every day of the week. RNG is better than this garbage.
