But I will say that, though a lot of the fights can be avoided, or else made a lot simpler by positioning, you are still going to have to give some thought and attention to how you go about combat. If that’s something you absolutely hate and would prefer to be able to just wade in and dispose of enemies then you probably do need to wait for the full release and easier play modes that I’d guess would be added.

I’d try to persuade you that combat, and finding ways to use the abilities and spells of all your characters to defeat enemies, can be really fun and satisfying. But you know yourself and what you like smile
