Well, yes, that's precisely the "traditional RTS control scheme" we've all been advocating for in the entire thread.

It's weird that Larian refuses so stubbornly to embrace it, because it's not really an unproven novelty, but rather the standard the entire genre has made use of since the dawn of this specific formula. Bg1, BG2, ToEE, PoE 1 and 2, Pathfinder Kingmaker, WotR... Basically any notable title in this subgenre borrows from there and refines the formula to some degree, while Larian is trying to reinvent the wheel... And making it square in the process.


Party control in Baldur's Gate 3 is a complete mess that begs to be addressed. SAY NO TO THE TOILET CHAIN
