I don't get why so many people think that PoEII was a very good game. The dialogue writing in PoEII was cringe worthy...
Obsidian is one of the very best developers out there when it comes to writing. And by contrast it is Larian whose writing has been utterly atrocious in the D:OS games. and remains questionable in BG3. Plus all the other things @Danielbda and @JDCrenton have said.
You must have spent too much time under the rock Obsidian's writing quality is dire right now. PoE2 is the best example of this with a tragically short and boring story. In the case of Larian, you can see progress in every game.
