Been playing today with a friend over the internet.


In combat it is very unclear whose turn it is and sometimes it seems as if characters have turns simultaneously.

1. You don't get a sign if your character gets to take a turn (like in D:OS2 where it clearly says "It is now Lohse's turn").
2. When I was walking around my character in combat, his character smashed as imp just as I passed. Did we take turns together?
3. Neither of us can make any sense of the portraits in the top left corner which suggest the turn order, as clearly that does not seem to match the turn order we actually take turns in?

Monster turns seem to work fine. Player turns are a mess.


For if it might matter:
My PC runs Ultra graphics at 4k almost smoothly, with just some hiccups.
His laptop can run the game but struggles as anything but lowest graphic settings.

You can have simultaneous turns with how they implemented the initiative order/grouping. Enemies always take all their actions in sequence, despite multiples of them going on the same initiative. Players though if they're on the same initiative can go at the same time.
