However if time doesn't mean anything then I am not sure ritual casting can work. The challenge Larian has right now is that with Multiplayer Ritual Casting is a difficult (impossible) thing to implement. If time constraints are impossible then how do you ritual cast. Do we all wait around for ten minutes? Do we fast forward ten minutes?
Any false time constraint just doesn't work in multiplayer.
BG3 is still a party based game and chances are it is not the ritual caster that may need an item identified (in an instance of identify the magic of an item), so I don't think the rest of the party would mind a brief pause to have the ritual done. It can be done as easy as it is in Solasta with a cut scene (Larian has the money & resources to make a pretty cool animation out of it), Minecraft or Valheim multiplayer (sleeping in a bed) or any other similar game. It's not like they need to reinvent the wheel to make it work, there are examples out there to use.
