Every time I’m like, damnit Lae’zel get out the way! Let the grown ups talk! Your charisma is 8!

They need to let someone else take over dialogue, I don’t know why that’s not a thing.
It’s a really odd mechanic that only one person is involved in the conversation. Are the rest of the party just stood back twiddling their thumbs? Very rarely do people converse like that in real life.
It really does diminish the power of tailoring your party to specialties.
If the guy I’m talking to starts being a dick why can’t I choose to have my badass character intimidate him? If they’re nice why can’t I use my charismatic character? Should be able to choose who responds to what whenever you like, it would make dialogue with NPCs so much more involved.
Intimidation is a charisma skill. A hulking half-orc barbarian with violent tendencies is less intimidating than the party bard.
As a piper, obviously, the bard could threaten to play the bagpipes out of tune so I can see where WotC were going with making it a Cha skill, but still.
The way I RP it in my head is the bard is telling the NPC, “I’ll have my buddy here fuck you up”
Yea I’m a sorcerer so I usually do the talking because I have the highest perception and charisma stats but whenever I can’t avoid combat I’m right in the middle of the fight and get fucking rekt. Though tbf that bit is at least somewhat realistic.
When scouting is a bitch though.
But they really should let everyone in the party participate in a convo.
Solasta does this really well, and it surprised me when I couldn’t do the same in BG3
Agreed!
Does that allow pre-buffing the rest of the party during a conversation that leads to a fight, like in DoS2?

Good to hear that some DoS2 style cheese made it into BG3 :)
To be fair, one could say it’s accurately simulating tables where everyone wants to be the face.
Even more accurate — the only reason I’m so desperate to take point in the first place is so my crush will think I’m funny
I just prefer conversation over combat, so every character I create is basically a cleric with high charisma. I stand in the back watching everybody do cool stuff in the fights, but when it’s time for important conversations everybody steps aside because I’m the one with the talking stats.
I read somewhere that you can shove companions out of dialogue. I only tried it once but my scrawny warlock couldn’t budge Karlach, so I can’t confirm.
