Death is inconsequential for your party. Withers or scroll of revivify solves 99% of your problems. If it's that important to never die than just save scum because your enjoyment is the most important factor when deciding how to play a game.
No matter what you do, the point is getting insta-gibbed is not some common thing and is easily fixable.
Yeah, obviously, it's just an aspect of the game that really sucks. Every enemy and character should not have a bonus action that is better than spells requiring a spell slot and action. Reduces the uniqueness of the spells and reduces fights in chasm areas to who can push who off a ledge the fastest.
Worst of all, it's not even remotely similar to the DnD rules for shoving, which requires a full action, instead of a bonus action, and only pushes 5ft, not the 15-20ft shoves in BG3.
Nope. Not exaggerating at all.
Lae'zel can regularly push enemies 15-20ft, as can any other character with 18-20 STR.
If you've GM'd plenty of 5E, then you know that the rules in 5E are as I said in the previous comment: "requires a full action ... and only pushes 5ft", which is much more balanced and rewards positioning in fights, not completely broken like it is in BG3.
