I don't understand... are you saying initiative used to be rolled for the whole party before EA launch and they changed it to per-character due to feedback, or are you saying it was rolled on a per-character basis before EA and they later changed it to full party due to backlash? Either way you made me double-check just in case.

If you're talking about this gameplay reveal from 2020, it clearly shows Astarion being alone in initiative despite Gale being alive here
In the recent PFH the very same mechanics are shown around this timestamp

So, how was initiative changed? Am I missing something?
