Hello there,
So, everything we saw so far can make us think that larian haven't implemented group rolls nor the possibility to change who leads in a conversation. Am I right?
Now, this were the same situation in DOS2 and it was a minor inconvenience there, even though it was ugly nonetheless.
I feel like that in a D&D game this would be a major issue if not a deal breaker, due to how different is the system underneath, having conversational and exploration skills distributed between the party.
I haven't played the early access, so I wanted to ask you people, how bad is the situation? Should I get worried about it or, despite everything, it's not much of an issue?
You said it yourself, it's a D&D.
If anything, metagaming highly discouraged in P&P version. It not like during ongoing conversation, DM asks for deception roll, and another player can jump with "oh, i have much better deception skill, can we quickly swap conversation to me?". It goes naturally, and any "missed" opportunities just have to be accepted.
P.S. I actually still on fence even that perception roll are visible to players. In actual D&D it's done silently by DM, and reveled only if roll actually successful.
