I wanted something more like Solasta.
That is the difference you simply either are unable to get ... or are ignoring on purpose. :-/
"You" have only "yourself" and "your" wishes to care for ...
"Larian" have "all" their players ... that mean even people who "dont" like Solasta and "dont" want it "just the same" ...
So they either can try to make hybrid between both as at least partialy satisfy everyone ... or they can just decide to "screw" the one group and simply continue in their own work ...
IN your place i would be glad they decided to create hybrid.
