Coming up on 2 years with nothing memorable.

This implies Baldur's Gate 3 (8/3/23) was not memorable, and I take issue with that.

I wanted to like that game, but the turn based combat was fucking mind numbing.

I'm glad it's not just me

Play it on hard mode so every move matters and the combat gets a lot less boring

Awhile ago they released mod support, and I'm pretty sure I remember hearing about a mod that made it real time with pause.

I ended up dropping it too, but it's more that I'm just not as into rpgs as I was in the past. I can recognize how good it is, but the genre just doesn't do it for me anymore.
