Maybe it’s not what you’re saying but how you’re saying it.

The most significant change I noticed was you can cast any number of leveled spells per turn. That’s a pretty significant shift from 5e’s rule of only one leveled spell (excluding using action surge if you dip into fighter) per turn.

However it makes the player stronger so I doubt anyone is really complaining about it.

But anywhere within the screen. 120ft would be far more than you can view surrounding your character.

Does breaking your oath make you an Oathbreaker in BG3? Because that’s not how Oathbreaker works in 5e.

A Paladin who forsakes their oath would just be a fighter. Oathbreakers are specifically Paladins who call upon the forces of evil for their strength rather than the divine. They don’t just break their oath, but twist and pervert it for some dark power.

One of the biggest changes is ranges of attacks. An Eldritch Blast has a range of 120ft in 5e. In BG3 all ranged attacks have been significantly shortened (less than half for Eldritch Blast) so they can’t be targeted “off screen”.

As a design philosophy, Larian dislikes people being hit by attacks from off screen so they limited the length of ranged attacks.

When the iPhones and fast food are gone, people will stand up and fight back. Until then it seems most people can’t be bothered to care.

We need ranked choice voting. Leftist parties dividing shouldn’t mean that pseudo-fascists win every election. This only happens because we use first-past-the-post voting systems.

Smash Bros? Plenty of people play it as a competitive fighting game while others just like to goof around with their friends.

Apparently America only elects milk toast centrists or right wing lunatics. Genuinely progressive politicians are completely out of the question.

Unfortunately auto manufacturers have lobbied billions of dollars to make sure that never happens. Plenty of us would love to try it, but as long as money rules politics it will never happen.

Idk if you don’t think LGBTQ+ folks deserve equal rights or think that social programs are “too generous” I’m not really interested in how nuanced the rest of you is.

Not saying that’s your beliefs specifically. Just that enough of us are actively harmed by the results of conservative laws and governance that I’m not really interested in knowing the nuanced part of someone who supports those policies.
