Solasta baffles me since it's combat-driven, custom party and turn-based, and I dislike/hate those in cRPGs. And yet I find myself drawn to Solasta, I've already bought it, support pack included. Holding off until I play IWD so I can compare them.
All of this is exactly me as well. In my case I mentioned to the TA devs during their KS campaign (which I modestly backed) I'm doing so despite the many reasons I have to dislike their game (the three you mention being at the top of my list as well) because I want to support a new studio making cRPGs in the hope that their future games will be more to my liking. So supporting Solasta is a one-time thing for me.
