I'm playing it now for the first time, on path of the damned, at level 6 and I agree.
Pillars dialogue reminded me of Kotor 2. What is wrong with Obsidians writers? Characters keep saying same things , they just keep paraphrasing. Just to have more text to look more like old RPGs ??
But it's not worst, divinity original sin 1 was much worst low effort rpg attempt.

So you agree it's the worst RPG ever but wait, no it's not.

He agrees that it's the worst RPG OP ever played, not that it's the worst RPG ever.

It's perfectly reasonable, if he played Disco Elysium, and assume OP didn't.

I haven't even played Disco Elysium and I can tell it's the worst rpg ever made from the steam page screen shots of dialogue alone.

I liked being able to directly interact with dieties, any other rpgs that do this?
depending on your definition of deities and where you draw the line between "being with powers far beyond our comprehension" and deity:
planescape torment
witcher 3
arguably vtmb
morrowind and most(all?) the TES games
underrail
nearly all the divinity games

witcher 3? When you interact with diety?

underrail does not have dieties, it is alliens much more advanced.
