I definitely want more info about the multiclassing changes, which I confess are the ones that really worry me personally from the issues Tuco originally mentioned.

Google translate gives me ...

Which is quite ambiguous. To me, it wouldn't be "revising the use of resources a bit" to, eg, give access to spell level progression based on character level rather than class level. That would be much more than a bit. I'm not a fan of removing multi-classing requirements, but while I can live with that I'm less comfortable with the concern about the balance of multiclass characters.

I mean, I know I've seen the argument that multi-classing doesn't really come into its own until levels higher than we get in BG3 on these forums, and I could understand Larian making some tweaks to make it more satisfying up to level 12 if they agree with that take, but the snippet we have now sounds as though there's a worry they'll swing way too far the other way.
