Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General The 'Solasta argument' and why it's irrelevant to me

The old Baldur’s Gate games had “core” rules settings. Solasta was a proof of concept that modern DnD combat rules could be translated to a modern video game.

While still falling short of either the old Baldur’s Gate core rules option or actually trying to translate all translatable parts of 5e combat rules, BG3 combat has moved in the direction of 5e combat rules. I think most people would agree that most, if not all, of the changes to bring BG3 in-line with 5e have improved the game.
