Am I the only one who plays all of my characters fresh without importing items from other runs?

No, I'm like this too.
Although my excuse is that I never bother saving the to stash in the first place or hardly even use them in general.

For me its a few things:

1. I don't level characters to max, so any of the top-tier legendaries are useless when I'll never get to level 94, and even level 75s are basically useless.
2. While leveling its hard to gauge what's useful as the leveling pace is fairly quick and most items aren't useful for more than, say, 3 hours of gameplay.
3. When I'm finished playing a character I never immediately start another to play. Instead it's 6 months later I'll think to come back and try something else. But when I do that I already have a character concept in mind and even if I saved equipment in the stash it's unlikely to match what my new character would want.

I do sometimes save some good early level +skills items, and a handful of level 50 legendaries. But mostly its the augments/components I carry over that are helpful. I guess that doesn't make my characters "clean", but its nice and convenient and flexible.

Does this game run decently on integrated graphics laptops? Does anyone know? I see it's on sale on Steam, and I'm considering getting it.

Yes.
I play this motherfucker on 2 laptops, one with an i5-5300U + HD Graphics 5500 (Win10) and another one with an i7-8650U + UHD Graphics 620 (Linux+Wine). Low settings but who cares, game runs almost flawlessly.

Well, you could become homeless and start from there (no id, no job, nothing in a new state or country [ditch the id and cash after you get there]).

There is death too i suppose for the ultra ultra hard core (start in hell or maybe the lake of fire). Maybe you get the darkest dark void cast away by god. Now we're teetering but without perma erasure of existence it will still feel like easy or god mode is on.

I suppose someone has just deleted the game upon dying.
Every time I die in a game, I smash my hard drive and get a new computer.

Gotta make the stakes real.
So what happens when you play planescape torment?
The same thing that happens when you play War and Peace.
A fuckload of pressing the next page button huh.
