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 have 0 dnd experience outside of AD&D decades ago, and this game isn't very complex at all. Combat definitely isn't. Strategic, yes, but not complex or overwhelming.

I don't understand how someone can be overwhelmed by the combat of this game. You can move, and you can do a thing, and some people get a once-per-turn extra thing. It's every strategy RPG game ever.
