All those Swen Vincke quotes prove that Larian are doing much more than changing what needs to be changed for a video game. They have a different vision of D&D, or a very narrow vision on "what works" in a video game i.e. surfaces, pushing and jumping and puzzles to the extreme where they override the actual ruleset being used.
Rogue abilities are a VERY good example of something that has nothing to do with the platform. They just gave the Rogue abilities to everyone because someone over there likes to do Rogue stuff on all characters without multiclassing a few levels into Rogue. Or some misguided notion that every character needs to be able to do a Bonus Action every turn. They don't. The system wasn't designed that way and stubbornly fighting it isn't going to work. Turn based combat does not get better if you have more actions per turn, especially if they are repetitive or overpowered like Stealth (or Shove). Sharing the Rogue class abilities has nothing to do with being a video game but everything to do with class identity and balance.
Solasta on the other hand proves that 5e RAW combat is very enjoyable and tactical in a video game. It does not need superhero jumps for everyone, or exaggerated shoving, or a million surfaces everywhere or goblins firing knockback arrows. These are things that Larian have ADDED because they seem to have an uncontrollable obsession about that stuff. Those additions actually make the game LESS tactical because you're always better off doing the Larian things than doing the D&D things. Solasta feels more like D&D, and it also feels like a better combat system overall after the sneak, shove and bomb fest that is BG3.
Larian aren't augmenting D&D for a video game platform. They're assimilating it into their own narrow mindset that is very different from the D&D CRPG's we have known and played in the past. And BG3 is a worse game for it.
If they choose to tone the homebrew down a notch, it could be great. Augment D&D, not replace it.
Whether the fight in Solasta is better is just a matter of opinion.
