The way I tend to enjoy Telltale games and other games of that nature like The Witcher (or indeed BG3) is to accept that I'm not playing my own character, I'm just playing a version of a character predetermined by the story and devs, so my choices will be limited to what those characters are capable of. Still, they're not for everyone. I don't like most visual novels myself, and the only Telltale games I've played are Wolf Among Us and the Batman ones.
