Just wait until Larian actually opens up the Player's Handbook and discovers they have not only kicked class balance in the groin, they have broken the Barbarian class (Reckless Attack) by their radical homebrew. Hoping Larian sees the error of their ways instead of doubling down triggering an avalanche of homebrew to fix their tampering.



Making a single class feature something that you might not want to use as often does not break the class. There will still be times that Reckless Attack makes sense to use, and if Barbarians can get Advantage without using it, that's actually to their benefit, as then they're not giving their enemies Advantage against them.


This is horrible arguement, any class can get that advantage, not only barb, so barb loses their uniqueness.



I don't think the Barbarian's uniqueness is entirely tied up in the Reckless Attack feature. And as I said, there will still be times when it makes sense to use it. Such as when you want to encourage the AI to attack the Barbarian, or when you can't or don't want to get behind the creature for whatever reason.
