My understanding is that these forums are provided as a courtesy for players to discuss Larian games ( and other things ), not as a means of communicating directly with the developers.
As far as I am aware, no-one in Larian is employed to act as a community interface; although there are announcement threads and moderators, that is not the same as offering a dialog.
I'm certain that the general sentiment from here, steam, reddit etc are monitored, and considered, but that does not mean that action will follow, either "immediately" or "eventually". I doubt that more than 1 in 1000 players actually post to forums, and those that do usually tend towards the fringes of opinion, so moving the game towards one opinion would outrage another.
My own fringe opinion is to prefer a wide array of alternative situation resolutions to engaging in combat, but I would not expect Larian to pay much heed to that, as most players seem to like killing things. I also find "boss fights" to be particularly trite and formulaic, but they must be popular as most games use them.
It is absolutely worth expressing what you like or dislike about this game ( or any other ), and why, since that is the only way developers can understand their audience. But, if your views are not universally shared, the best you can expect is that the developers will give you options and/or some flexibility in the final game ( i.e. at some time over the next 1-2 years ) rather than expecting an immediate reaction.
