Ooooh most important tip: save often, save early, save a lot. And keep autosave enabled. And keep backups of the saves.
Especially also make permanent saves at crucial points: when you level up, when you reskill your companions (if you do), when you switch acts.
And make two perma saves for "started new area" and "current".
Also make backups of your saves elsewhere at the end of the gaming session. You will probably want to delete all autosaves and quicksaves for that.
Personally I dialed down the number of quicksaves and autosaves to 10. Thats IMHO still plenty. Also thanks to the absolutely chaotic way the game stores data, I delete the quicksaves and autosaves at the end of the gaming session, so only having 10 of each is a welcome timesaver.
Well, as far as I can see, evil isnt really an option in this game. Unless you fancy skipping over lots of content, because most of the origin characters will leave.
Yes some dialogues wil be with your protagonist only. You will probably want at least some of the social skills - Insight, Deception, Intimidation, Persuation. Really all skills are used in dialogue sometimes, though.
I dont know about Charisma 14 though. That sounds like an enormous waste on a character that has a class with no real use for that stat otherwise. Namely everyone but Bard, Paladin, Sorcerer and Warlock.
