I guess I'll switch to RTwP then, see if I like it any more than I have in the past. I've just arrived on Neketaka and started meeting factions, so I so far hate the Principi (aristocrats), Valians (big oil), and Royal Deadfire Company (br*tish). Still need to meet the Neketaka part of the Huana, but unless they turn out to be deeply problematic on some way I'm pretty sure I'm just going to side with them on everything.
I still don't think RTwP is a great system but PoE probably has the best implementation of it I've seen.
I also sided with the Huana on everything, but I enjoyed playing a game that actually takes colonialism reasonably seriously, along with all the self-justifying rhetoric that comes with the different flavours of colonisers.
Edit: for an epilogue read the faction choice arguments on reddit to see how far we've not come.
