I'm not sure what your point is. We don't exactly know what will be kept the same and what Larian will change in the future. Personally I don't like cheese because I like to be immersed in the game and cheese is usually something silly / goofy that makes it hard for me to take the game seriously.
One example of a cheese is that you can kill anything with barrels, there is a solution to this - make enemies notice barrels, move away from them, throw them away or warn the player to get those barrels out of their face or they will attack. This is feedback. Is it a given that Larian will change / add such a mechanic? No, actually most likely nothing will change in this regard and you will be able to beat any encounter with barrels. Same for hidding cheese, it can be solved by making enemies properly scout the sorrounding area looking for the player. Once again, it is not a given that Larian will add such a mechanic.
Hey there @Kadajko,
My point is, there are lots of complaint about how easy to "cheese the game", but that's an early access game and I think the players & dev are leaning and check & adjust. As you pointing out, the state of the game is not definitive. If the game was finished then it would be different - the complaint would be "valid".
Also, as per the definition, "cheesing the game" doesn't come automatic. you got to find those breach/hack. Ex.: you have to know & find out that you can use barrels to win any battles - you can actually gather & carry those barils and then use them for an up coming battle.
Your example to counter the use of barrel is a good one. You could also make those barrel heavier - the player might not be able to carry too many of them. There might be other options.
