If, as I suspect from your self-intro as a D&D player, you have a soft spot for vibrant worlds and exploration and stories, then I would recommend not letting an ok combat system put you off. I'm having so much fun finding hidden treasures and surprising little story gems.
Yeah, the combat system is probably the weakest point in the game, but it's not terrible. You kinda get used to it, and after banging your head against the wall 20 times in frustration over initiative and AI, I promise you, the pain will get better.
