The only think I dont like is the "dice game" I hate it, when a child dies just because I'm unlucky when throwing the dice.
I hate this Option in D:OS1 too and was glad that it was removed in D:OS2 (The best game I ever played!)
And I hate it when my fellow combatants argue! This are the rules in Baldurs gate, I know, but I don't like it.
It wouldn't be D&D without it. I feel though many critics are compulsive perfectionists/control freaks who blind themselves to the real issue and focus the criticisms on the physical act of rolling dice. Curse the binary consequences of RNG, rather than to interpret it as the abstraction it is: The druid was too set in her ways, too blinded by fear and anger for your words to reach her in a compelling enough manner. Accidents happen, the world is far from perfect - in fact, utopian ideology/thought has historically been the cause of many of humanity's greatest evils. You are given a chance to heavily influence important events, but you are not divinity. I suggest you try to let go of the idea of perfection and revel in how the story is spun.
Hope the possibility to save during dialogs, will defuse the situation sometimes.
Larian has made BG3 into a very deep game and you rob yourself of a narrative experience that likely will be more compelling than compulsive perfection. I hope Larian disincentivize save scumming even further by removing saving in combat (and not allowing it in dialogue). Nothing should stop you from reloading before starting the conversation if you can't let go of the "mental pacifier". But it shouldn't be made so easy avoiding that temptation becomes hard.
I've played for about 20 hours now and can't get any further. The fights are too hard. In every direction there are enemies that I can't get past.
Maybe I don't have the right party and I haven't really understood the magic system yet, but I hope there will be a story mode again, like with D:OS2 or at least an easy mode.
It seems to play early access was not the best idea for me. But I like the Larian games (They are better than Ultima 7 and Ultima Underworld, my favorites until I played DivineDivinity) I play all of them a many times and so I know I can play this one too sometimes, maybe not in early access.
There will be difficulty settings implemented. I would suggest you rather than play the game and be too frustrated, check out some of the playthroughs on YouTube. ChristopherOdd and ESO are two of my favorites, but there are many others.
