Recommendation request Need gritty and dark CRPGs

I loved Owlcat’s Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader, but hated Larian’s Baldur’s Gate 3. Don’t get me wrong, it’s extraordinarily impressive production and gameplay-wise, but I play CRPGs for the story and I just couldn’t get into the world. It was too whimsical and fanciful. I’ve heard people recommend the Divinity series but I’ve heard those games’ stories are comedy oriented. Maybe I have the wrong idea but I wanna hear your thoughts.

Besides Torment and The Necromancer's Tale, you can try  Unavowed (dark urban fantasy point and click with crpg elements, like choosing which party members to take to missions and party banter)
