Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Passive perception checks feel weird

There is no such thing as a passive perception CHECK in 5e... there is passive perception, but that's a static number, and everything that has a lower to-notice-DC then that number, you just, well... see. So, before anything, the characters should atleast enter some form of active perception/search stance to actually do checks for their surroundings, which should - of course - be hidden rolls.
