The "shut up it's magic" becoming a "shut up it's the tadpole"...
I find this very weak if that's it.
Stronger abililities such as a jump over 22m instead of 11m ? Seriously ?
All you have to do is
free your mind.
Joking a side, yes it looks awkward and is potentially very convenient. Whenever I buy into it, depends from whenever it is any fun. A lame explanation can be good enough, if gameplay is engaging and would be worse otherwise. I still think the jump looks silly though. I think just removing "charge up" (the pose that starts when you pick the ability) would do it for me.
Jump animations as of now are really terrible.
Don't know what will happen with the "tadpole excuses" when we remove them.
Assuming we will remove them before the end of the game. Tadpoles could be "the source" of BG3 rather then collars. It would be odd for what seems to be many core mechanics to be removed (not only gameplay, but also mind trick thingy).
