Combat in D:OS vs PoE

Which game has the less complex, easier combat, especially requiring less micromanagement?  Divinity:  Original Sin 1 or Pillars of Eternity 1?

Thanks!

    Are you looking for easy girls?  They are at the cabaret.  Oh, wait.  What?  No,  I don't work for riot.  

    I've got the straight edge.

    Divinity has the easier combat. It seems that melee combat is more viable at higher level in Pillars. That could be me though.

    I thought PoE was simpler.

    D:OS, especially 1, had a whole mess of environmental effects that complicated things a bit too much a times. In D:OS2 it's still there but at least you have a simpler system for mitigating it.

    PoE is way simpler. Most fights that aren't bosses can just be left in real time without pausing and the companion AI will do most of the work.

    D:OS requires tons of management because of all the environmental effects you can cause with almost anything you do.. plus it's turn based all the time so you literally have to micromanage everything and on every character.
