Rtwp wasn’t the norm as far as I remember, but manuals were. So the systems are explained in the manual, but not too well so there were a lot of online guides.
Anyway you are hardly the only person who dislikes rtwp, it’s a crutch system that tries to give you some control over a full party but ends up in a chaotic mess which is slower than a turn based game would be because you have to pause quite a lot.
I loved BG1/2 in spite of its systems, but I can’t play them today.
If you want to play them, I would suggest a low difficulty, and a lower game speed which both lessen the need to pause all the time. Also most of the party should be melee and archers, assign them the basic combat script so they can fight without too much babysitting.
