The fact that many of us beaten the game mostly by using refurbished DnD rules made by Larian ( like high ground Advantage, stealth spam, OP cantrips, shove every turn, unlimited rest, disengage as a bonus action, etc) Isn’t enough of an argument to say that the game is unbalanced?
Sometimes I just want to be in a mood of hack n slash party with 4 barbarians that aren’t so smart to use tactical combat and use brute force to overwhelm a goblin army. Currently that’s not a viable option. Isn’t that the very essence of DnD? Everything being viable (some options more effective and others less) is a feature of what I define as a tactical game.
For those who played Pilars of eternity II, there was those ship battles where the player wouldn't have the advantage of adjust the battleground in their flavor. Pure RAW battle. I miss that so much in BG3
