Yeah the environment effects while in combat are just over the top. There is too much stuff going on while in battle. Larian ought to keep environment effects in DOS, and leave them out of BG3. Large battles are ridiculous. I literally fell asleep in the middle of a battle while waiting for enemy actions. This turn-based business and AI is quite frankly atrocious. Like someone said earlier, small battles are okay in this but as soon as you start to have 7+ enemies the battles just become way too long. If you have the ability and sometimes necessity to save in the middle of battle, you know your battles are too long. Simple.
