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)

"So then it's onboarding people, teaching them how to play D&D, which is really complex"

I learned to play D&D Advanced Ed, TMNT the rpg, Shadowrun 1st edition, GURPS, and others, when I was 10-11 years old.

It's not particularly complex, you just have to be interested enough to read and take the time to learn the ruleset.

I've been thinking about this a lot because I have two weekly games, and both have at least one player who just doesn't really master the rules.

They're not stupid people. But they don't pick up the rules. Ten weeks in and I'm still reminding them about opportunity attacks. One group isn't playing DND and one player has similar problems.

I don't know what to do.

Some people are just never going to learn them.
