Nearly all these aspects where discussed since day one of EA. And are major game changer.
It feels that all has been done and changed in these 2 years, are just minor tweaks to this and that. Nothing really substantial. Yea the UI changed, a little. But its generally the same. Some combat systems changed...a little. But they are mostly the same. etc.

If you ignore the added content...this has been the EA of little tweaks and fixes to a game that was already 95% decided from day one. I cannot think of ONE single thing that was drastically changed/added (IGNORING ADDED BASE GAME CONTENT) since the beginning of EA. I think its SO BAD that stuff like party members jumping with you when moving, swarm AI, reaction system, un-summon (?!) etc...all might feel like major changes but they are NOT.
Hence going back to everyone being ridiculed calling this game DOS3. That the game will be totally different a couple years down the road... Well, here we are and this is indeed DOS3 in a shallow Faerun setting with a light D&D sauce.
Still a fun game no doubt. Most definitely not a Baldur's Gate game, but its 2023...who cares?

It just reminded me of the bowl of goat's milk that old Winthrop used to put outside his door every evening for the dust demons. He said the dust demons could never resist goat's milk, and that they would always drink themselves into a stupor and then be too tired to enter his room..
