Lots of game studioes thing of how players can beat fights first before thinking of immersion.
Larian focuses on immersion first. If you decided to face tank a roadblock checkpoint, you'll probably have a bad time.
If you decide to charge head long into a bad guy base, you'll probably have some problems.
Also know that npcs will lie to you.
