Question is: Will that be enough time for Larian to reconcider some of their decisions ... or are we effectively beyond the point where feedback actualy could change something?
Personally im affraid the second option is true.
At some point the game has to be feature-locked for the sake of actually completing development. The closer we get, the less likely it is that particular details that annoy EA players are going to be changed, if there was ever a chance at all. I'm personally of the opinion that Early Access exists as a marketing ploy to lure in pre-orders rather than as a pool of beta testers who can influence Larian.
There has been quite some exemple of changes after players feedback for exemple : first person narration, jump to disengage and high ground advantage. The also have shown that they are gathering tons of telemetry of our playthroughs. Larian not catering 100% to every demands isn't a proof they aren't listening and reacting accordingly.
