Immersion is justa buzz word in game industry. if you want immersion go larping.
In CPRG, Characters are main source of Immersion imho. Larian seems to be focusing too much on other things.
Speaking of Immersion, Virtual Worlds has been suggested to game industry million time, but they dont want to get into it. Therefore, Larian should keep "game mechanics" important. DOS2 was somekind of seamless-game.
It is a bit difficult to become immersed (or whatever word you want to use) in your character if you do not understand the world they are in. Adding information and worldbuilding for people who need it doesn't take away from game mechanics. Never played DOS 1 or 2, is there anything in those games you can give as examples of how your character learned about the world, especially deities if there are any and locations they should be familiar with?
