Just want to comment here with my full support of the turn-based combat and literally all of the gameplay I saw from the live preview. I don't want the feedback to be skewed by ridiculous, nostalgic BS. I don't have the data to prove it's a "vocal minority" that's upset about no rtwp, but we can all at least be realistic and admit turn-based games sell more than rtwp games these days. There is a reason why PoE 2 went back and added a turn-based mode. There's also no proof that it's NOT a vocal minority -- looking at social media is not proof. People that are upset about what they saw are much more likely to go complain on social media.
I'd hate to see what was shown in the preview ruined by all of this garbage feedback. That said, I think Larian is smart enough to know what they are dealing with.
Extremely excited for early access.
Yep, my game is going to sell billions of copies - I just have to make it turn-based.
That's not the correct logic at all, and in no way relates to a comparison of turn-based and rtwp combat systems. If all other aspects about the game are exactly equivalent, a turn-based game is going to sell more copies than the rtwp version. Excellent try though.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games Actually your logic in no way relates to a comparison of turn-based and RTwP combat systems and your claim is literally impossible to verify. It's basically a prediction based on hot air.
