It's kinda like this. When you say things like we're being over the top and comical, it's pretty much no different than if I said you're being utterly illogical and stupid.
I'm also saying this sincerely. I'm not trying to be a jerk. In all honesty, I just think you and Ragnarok are more similar, and that I don't see eye to eye with you two. I have a really hard time with your logic. I can't understand why you can't see just how broken certain things are. From my perspective, the game mechanics for shove and throw are SO broken that I think it's utterly idiotic that they would even think that it's appropriate for the game.
So here's what I'm saying, "When you say we're being ridiculous, over the top and exaggerated or whatever," I could retaliate just as sincerely by saying, "You're an illogical crazy person who, for some reason, thinks a person should be able to shove another person 30 feet through the air, off a cliff and another 300+ feet into Torchstalks. I'm also not exaggerating, by the way. It literally happens MULTIPLE TIMES.
Seriously, I'm not actually saying any of this with veiled insults. Just trying to explain how it comes across. In truth, I think you're just a very passionate person about BG3 who really doesn't want to see it changed. You love it just the way it is. I'm glad. I also love the game, but unlike you, especially because I'm a D&D DM, I can see how when rules about things like shove are unbalanced, it actually messes up a TON of other rules and mechanics, throwing off the entire game.
Besides that, I've had too many incidences in the game where enemies have shoved me frustratingly off ledges, and it's gotten to the point that it's happening so much I'm REALLY upset by it. It's hard to want to keep playing when I'm playing all strategically, and some idiot baby goblin runs up and shoves me a ridiculous distance off a cliff. Too many times. It ruins the game for me. I hate reloading just because a mechanic is so op.
