Lol. Ever play Icewind Dale? The party is there because no class in d&d is supposed to be self sufficient.
You do know soloing IWD is totally possible and much more hassle-free, right?
Possible yes, but much more hassle-free? I don't follow.
You have to control just one guy, reducing management stuff to nothing. Maybe your mileage might vary, but I prefer party based games only for turn-based stuff where I can meaningfully control everything without having to be an autist that pauses the games every step.
More of an issue with RTwP than with party dynamics, then.
