Separate from gameplay concerns about ranged weapons being less than useful, the current tiny fog of war radius, even on outdoor maps, makes everything seem gloomy and oppressive.

 

I can understand that being the point for dungeons, but it makes it really hard to appreciate the nice environments when everything except a little circle at the center of my screen is dark.

And the massive black out would be more palatable if the line of sight wasn't so tiny! Its the worst of both worlds. I really had hoped the isometric maps we loved from BG2 and BG1 icewind dale would feature again. Unfortunately they have been hidden in pitch black with tiny line of sight. All the more ridiculous when you see the effort put into them. Unnecessary and for me until the fault is fixed makes it a game of frustration
