Has Larian announced anything about "Game Modes"?
Many of the complaints seem to come from different fans expecting certain rules and limitations, while Larian has decided to break traditional DnD rules in favor of some kind of hybrid.
DOS2 has a few different game modes that offer a tailored experience, More combat, less combat, More RP, etc.
I think a simple "Core Rules" game mode would go a long way to make DnD fans happy.
I, as well as a number of others, have been asking for this very thing for just about three years. Larian will not do it, but I'm hopeful that some genius modder out there will create a mod that does exactly this. If I could have tmy cake of Larian's compellingly rich narrative filled with intensely consequential choices, and eat it too with combat as faithful to the 5e mechanics as possible, I'd be a totally satisfied adventurer.
