Do you for example remember how people were complaining about cantrips creating surface effects? Larian responded. wink

Technical limits are nice excuse ...
Except they could have make it toggable since patch 1 ... not nearly as well as with curent reaction system (wich Nick himself admited they didnt plan originally at all), but it was totally possible by old togglable passives!
Also ... as far as i know, Larian never comented on their reasons ... so another asumption.

And finaly ... im not aware of any claim that Larian "hate DnD rules" ... so im not really sure what are you trying to say here.
Sure, it's guesswork. But since I have a masters degree in ICT, specialising in Project Management, it's my job to make these kinds of guesses all the time. It's not "wild", it's based on training and experience.

For example, they could have made a half-assed change earlier on. But they chose to test the system with the paladin smites (which work on bonus actions) first. They, once that works and proves popular, port it over to rogues. Much better practice. And you should NEVER announce changes ahead of knowing if they are actually going to work.
