I get the feeling from how you describe things you've got experience playing 5e. I've only ever played original AD&D and 2e rules, and for me, the reaction mechanics in BG3 haven't been a source of frustration. The vibe I've gotten is that Larian's target it much more casuals like me that like D&D, like crpgs, but aren't married to any specific concepts.

Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of things I wish were different (the toilet chain, priority of multiplayer over something as straightforward as a freaking pause feature...), but I've come to conclusion that the forums exist as a place for us to vent these frustrations, rather than an actual source of meaningful feedback.
