Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General How should a series of community polls be structured for the purpose of gauging community feedback?

I know this is probably not feasible, but I would have liked a poll where concrete ALTERNATIVES are offered. To be honest, I think most people are about as imaginative as your average rock and will likely be "fine" or "okay" with many aspects because they simply can't imagine anything better.

For instance:

ALT. FLANKING: Friendly/enemy AI automatically pivot towards a single flanking enemy even when it's not their turn to act. A second threat is needed to flank (and gain flanking bonus). Bonus: More realistic, balanced and immersive combat.

ALT. *RNG* IMPLEMENTATION: Implement a more complex combat feedback/animation system where misses due to dexterity, shields, and armor are shown as dodged, blocked, or deflected. This is addressing the psychological aspect to bad RNG/missing, where people likely would be more accepting of failure when it is shown as due to a skilled enemy as opposed to just the player's ineptitude/bad luck. Bonus: More varied and interesting combat.

ALT. WEAPON DIPPING: Implement any number of D&D 5e alternatives; cantrips like Booming Blade and Green-Flame Blade, alchemical fire coating flask, poison (expendable resources).

ALT. SHOVE: As 5e (requiring attack action). Rely on actual 5e like Repelling Blast, Thunderous Wave, implement magical item like a wand (expendable resource) with aforementioned spells/knockback effect, add to Druid Wild Shape/Polymorph shapes.
