Your initial post was complaining about how party members would move on their own. Toggling off group stops that, no?
I also noticed that there is an option for tactical view. That is making my encounters much easier to deal with. I wonder if they help with the "camera height" issues as well.
Every post I made in this thread "was complaining" about the fact that separating characters with the chain system is a shitty, convoluted mechanic that makes the action way more cumbersome that it should be. It involves a certain number of unnecessary intermediate steps (like dragging portraits and whatnot) to achieve what other systems do intuitively in fractions of seconds. The point was never that I could find no option whatsoever to move characters individually.
I could also put the game in forced turn-based mode at any given time and move each one separately, but that would still be a far cry from being a comfortable control scheme and a gold standard in the genre.

And that's an argument in its favor... How? Aside for the fact that no, that's actually a fairly different system, last thing I'd want from a party based CRPG is to "control like Final Fantasy". Classic or modern makes little difference in that sense.

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