I realize this is a dead thread but I wanted to again thank those that responded. Based on your comments I decided to give BG3 a try and happy I did. I'm currently in Act 3 in balanced mode and already thinking about a second run in tactician. The dice can be aggravating at times but most of it in combat is behind the scenes and the different checks that occur while exploring or in conversation can be overcome. I will confess to saving quite frequently. What a huge game. Main character decisions and party development took some time but the most difficulty for me is the terminology but I'm learning. My MC and party members are pretty vanilla; haven't done any multi-classing. Sometimes I agonize over choosing equipment where the differences are minor and I have to consider damage, enchantment, and the many bonuses and modifiers. I manage for the most part but I'm sure there were better choices for those that understand the details. Constantly learning and finding out things that would have been helpful earlier in the game but will make the next run easier.
Thanks again.
