Larian knows Baldur's Gate 3's D&D combat is super complicated: "We used to joke you basically need a tutorial for every class" (www.gamesradar.com)

I'm just really not a fan over how heavy RNG it is. I have to save scum like crazy.

Might not be the game for you. Part of the appeal of dnd for me is not being to get everything because of the dice. Not every door can be unlocked, not every social interaction will succeed. Even combat, I have to flee with half the party dead and then revive them later because a critical spell didn't succeed or a concentration save wasn't made.

Yeah well when I do three 1/20 on a row when using inspirations dice on a roll your character should be a pro at it's... Frustrating.

Do you have Karmic Dice turned off, to get three crit fails in a row?
