Josh Sawyer says there's "a lot of people" at Obsidian who want to make a Pillars of Eternity Tactics game after Avowed, but the "fanbase is not humungous" (www.gamesradar.com)

I really don't like tactics style gameplay which only a couple of exceptions. Traditional RealTime with Pause is much more appealing to me after playing so much of the old Baldurs Gate games. This is partially why I could never get into the Divinity: OS games and why I've been avoiding BG3. I usually just want to instagib scrubs instead of entering a series of elaborate menus.

Some games are not meant to be power fantasies tho, and that is absolutely okay

Yeah it's a matter of personal taste
