Not even a little bit.

At the C-suite level it's actually better to be fired than to quit. If you're fired for any reason other than for cause, you get a buyout.

Kinda wondering if Larian's decision to move on from Baldur's Gate was the final straw here. On top of everything else, of course (OGL, Pinkertons, etc.).

Good riddance. I hope Chris Cocks follows her out the door in short order.

From a selfish standpoint, I'm obviously sad. Objectively, however, Larian made the right move. Hasbro and WOTC are toxic, especially recently.

I will always push back against caster supremacy, and doubly so against proposals that EXACERBATE that problem. The disrespect was 100% intentional. Cope.

It's a question that doesn't deserve a helpful answer.

To be fair, certain martials can still use that 1 attack from HM Haste effectively. Hunter Rangers with Volley/Whirlwind (which counts as one attack in BG3 rather than a whole action and thus does not suck), Tiger Barbarians, Paladins with smites to use, mainly. Or anyone with Arrows of Many...

Scrapping attunement entirely also really helps.

Limits the extra action to 1 attack a la 5e Haste, but still allows 2 spells a round. So turning Haste into a still-busted 3.0 version of the spell for casters, but making it as weak for martials as it is in 5e.

I stopped taking them seriously when they touted the now-defunct Flex as the best Weapon Mastery.

They will be in the 2024 revision.

My comparison is basically: Original cut Godfather 3: Stupid AND very boring. Godfather Coda: Still stupid, but not quite as boring. But most of the stuff that made you roll your eyes in Godfather 3 before is still there in Coda, other than having slightly less of Sofia Coppola's performance.

I'm just glad the director's cut that came out not too long ago dropped the 3 off the title and renamed it Coda. Now we don't have to pretend it's an integral part of the story with the first two. (Coincidentally, Coda is at least a much better paced experience than the original cut, though...

Refer to it as whatever, because I and many others will not be investing in this garbage.

That being limited by spell slots thing very rarely works out in actual play.

Or the solution could be to give martials more than one way beside grappling to bypass the systems in place, the same way that casters have already had since the beginning of time. That you never thought of that as a solution tells me you would rather keep that caster and martial imbalance in...

I'll take that as a win.

Incorrect. Full casters can absolutely be gods at both. They have been demonstrated countless times of being capable of being both. That's why they're so much better than non-full casters.

Character power is not subjective.
