Seriously? You really think Larian would release the game as EA and ask players for feedback and opinions if their mindset was "our way or the highway"?

Besides, "Larian know what they are doing" is a occasionally questionable in itself. It's not the first time they insist to introduce a subsystem that just doesn't work and they stick to it no matter what, just to admit "Oh boy, that was bad" in hindsight (i.e. the armor system in DOS is the last blatant example of this).
Also, as mentioned just one post above, their itemization and progression systems in DOS 2 were among the WORST I've ever played in the genre.
Note that I say this as someone who still has a lot of admiration for DOS 1 and 2 overall.





Party control in Baldur's Gate 3 is a complete mess that begs to be addressed. SAY NO TO THE TOILET CHAIN
