It sucks so much ass. Realtime with "hidden" dnd rules was the way to go.

As somebody who played turn-based RPGs first, I find that real-time with pause RPGs are slow, overly punishing and have no viable way to strategize. I dislike them very much.

It's not a problem with turn-based, per se. I love Xcom. I finished Expeditions: Rome which is 100% turn-based combat on a grid exactly like BG3 & D:OS I&II. I love D&D rulesets as well. It's just something about the exact combination of these things in BG3 that really REALLY irks me and prevents me from enjoying the game at all.
