This was my first RPG of this style (BaldursGate - like RPG or not sure how to call it), and even that I liked it, I understand that is not for everyone.
For me the game got so much better when I turned the difficulty at minimum, it was annoying having combats so frequently and the combat system was a bit too complex for me (or I did not have the patience to fully enjoy it...). Same for the level system, I tried at first to understand it and choose the correct options for my characters but in the end I did not paid so much attention to it.
I was way more interested in exploring the different scenarios, some of them really beautiful and interesting, worth to check every corner.
The story was also a bit difficult to follow some times, because there seems to be so much names, locations, past events and lore in general that can be a bit overwhelming.
For me this was one of those games where the first 1/3 or 1/2 of the game is great, and you start doing all the side quests, and paying attention to the game mechanics, but then it starts to lose interest and you end up rushing the main story.
But even will all of this I enjoyed most of it, it was good to try something different, but I don't think I will play this again, maybe Pillars of Eternity 2 after some long time.
