Baldur's Gate 3

Combat balance is focused on wrong stuff

The combat is not enjoyable after a while because of the unbalanced nature of shove, backstab, jump and high ground. The initial fun of these options disappears quickly. As the combat is balanced to be challenging with these options, you are at a disadvantage if you choose alternative tactics and are effectively punished for trying to use dnd spells in a dnd game. Everything else is good but poor gameplay drags the rest down and combat is the single largest aspect of the game in terms of time spent interacting with it compared to companions, lore , plot etc.
