it would feel silly to play the game traditionally when you know you could even more easily defeat the encounter with the more effective strategy.
Not sure if strategy is the right word here ...
But i gues its all matter of midset ... to me it feels silly to play the game in the way i generaly dont enjoy ... as long as i dont enjoy my Wizard to cast Cleric spells, i do not and im having fun ... no matter what other options are there. O_o
//edit:
Also just look how it ends ...
For example i liked to start encounters from a distance ... i have seen phasespider, so i positioned my group and shot an arrow (usualy pin down, to get more time before it gets close) ... so before he get close enough to be actualy dangerous, i usualy get at least 1 or 2 additional attacks ...
But people discovered exploit ... when you attacked from distance, and immediatly hide, enemies did not follow you ... so they exploited every single fight by that ... was it fun? Dunno ... but i doubt that.
Larian decided to remove this exploit ... but sadly, instead of any other solution ... they decided to let enemies heal infinitely to full ... :-/
Personaly i dont find such "solution" to be good choice ... and im kinda worried about what "solution" they would invent next time for another exploits. :-/
