Baldur's Gate 3 launched earlier this month to player and critical acclaim. However, as players have begun to reach act 3, many are discovering that it's...a touch less polished than the first two acts.
I think it’s sorta okay that the enemies don’t get too much stronger, especially since (at least for casters) a lot of the added power comes in the form of gaining access to stupidly OP spells like Hypnotic Pattern. I don’t think it would be very fun if enemies started using tactics that amounted to “Hahaha, I rolled higher initiative so now you don’t get to play for the next three rounds while I can do whatever I want.”
That’s how my first try at one act 1 boss went. They multiplied with illusions and those cast hold person on each party member and then just killed them all. I didn’t try that boss after until way later
“Hahaha, I rolled higher initiative so now you don’t get to play for the next three rounds while I can do whatever I want.”
I had to reload multiple fights because the enemies just killed 3-4 of my partymembers before I had my first turn. Random Initiative is really not something I like in Games.
