not the person you asked but ive played a lot of nms so i figured id chime in.
it’s not combat heavy unless you want it to be. Just dont mine resources in front of or shoot at the space cops and theyll leave you alone (and avoid planets that are labeled “aggressive sentinels”, theyll shoot you on sight on those planets. Also dont pick up gravitino balls.)
The only time combat is required on foot is if you follow the main storyline (and tbh its mostly just to get you used to how combat works) or if you do an expedition that requires combat. And even for those scenarios, you can usually get around it by just getting the required materials elsewhere.
as far as space combat goes, you have to do a little bit of combat to get a free freighter, but space combat is way easier than on foot imo, since you can use an auto aim feature. Pirates will occasionally chase you, but you can literally just run away from them and warp to another system, or land in a space station to get them to back off.
I dislike combat in nms, not because its bad or anything (it’s actually really fun once you get a decently upgraded multitool/ship) i just prefer to be sneaky rather than go in guns blazing for roleplay reasons, so i try to avoid it as much as possible.
DA5: You can play an orlesian noble or a tevinter magister (both are human men. the skin tones range from “fresh snow” to “beige”). your morality choices are whether you call elves and/or qunari slurs to their faces or not. You can advocate for tevinter style slavery in orlais and if youre orlesian, you can set up your soapbox on the ashes of the alienage for added effect.
