I didn't know that being grimdark is synonymous of bad writing (its not). It may not be innovative compared to novels, but thinking only in games, I see nothing of that level in writing. And how the decisions influence the narrative is better than the others rpgs of the time. This aspect is oversimplified and dull (Mass Effect is one example) in modern rpgs too.
