3.5e buffbotting is a tedious non interactive drag and once you actually learn all the PF builds you know there's a lot of overlapping mechanics and mostly flavor abilities. It's not actually deeper than 5e which is why I became a 5e convert even though I'm the most ancient grog here.
5e tabletop streamlined balance and modularity in builds carries well to crpg and lets them focus more on content imo.

Nothing wrong with a d20 check, amounted to easy streamlined reactivity to build in to several more points in BG3 than you find in most games. Custom dice are fun and cool to look at, and a good bridge back from crpg to the actual roots of the genre.

You're nearly 100 percent correct except that Ulbrig is an absolute beast, easily equivalent to Wendu if not slightly better. Once he gets all the shapeshifter gear and just set flying charge and forget you have a perfect extra offtank that doesn't siphon other types of gear from the more regular classes.

I use full respec mod and avoid Owlcat weak builds anyway though so I can play with the companions I like the way I want to.

Exactly, once I start hearing the Reddit talk Nenio gets benched which is 100% of playthroughs.
