Is the game really intended to be this much of a "try-it-until-you-get-it" luck-based RPG? (lemmy.world)

I mean, the game is amazing, has amazing dialogues, atmosphere and all that, but damn... the combat is surely a downer. Feels like theres no "real" tactic to the game other than just keep on (mindlessly) trying until the battle is won. And yes, I've done all quests, sidequests, with a "non-meme" party on the balanced difficulty and I'm -still- having lots of "please don't use (x) skill or else my whole run is done for" moments.

I reloaded there because I was expecting more dialog options along the line that didn’t result in my Paladin breaking his oath. Oh and non-lethal damage seemingly still broke my oath?!

I can’t think of any other moments Ive had to reload due to braindead conversation options but I have been frustrated a few times.

As a vengeance paladin seemingly nothing breaks my oath.
