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)

Huh I expected such thing will be handled with group initiative already at beta stage. Owlcat ran into the same problem with Rogue Trader and after feedback from alpha that large groups of goons resolve turns way too slow bundled them in the initiative track. It's a very common tabletop rpg solution to the issue and I'm surprised Larian didn't implement it.
