Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Reaction Button - RtwP Concept

I hadn't thought about the camera and how the combat is so fast you can't tell half the time who is doing what. And then, with swarm...

Sigh.

Well. Fine. No Reactions Button. Then we're back to Presets vs. Popups.

Though, maybe instead of popups, they could do something similar to what I was suggesting.

AOO is triggered by goblin. Game pauses. Combat log pops open and tells you the goblin triggered it. Your melee attack lights up. You click on enemy to use your reaction to attack or you just hit space bar to continue the round and not use your reaction. No popups. Just game pausing and if you want to know why, the combat log says why.

Enemy casts spell. Game pauses. Your counterspell lights up. Don't want to use it. Space bar.

I don't know. It's still jerky, choppy combat, but it's more like you're taking a turn more frequently.
