Yes BG1 and 2 did it very well even though 2e D&D was also TB. So you effectively admit that just because the TT rules are TB, because they HAVE to be as there is no other way to play a TT game, does NOT mean the video game rendition of a game also needs to be TB.

Well, BG3 combat IS boring. A real snooze-fest. So yeah, I want to get through the mind-numbing boredom of combat in BG3 as quickly as I possibly can.
