My favorite thing about Pillars (and I loved the poo poo out of that game) is a line at the very end of the game that only shows up if you pick an incredibly specific background.

If you pick the philosopher background, and then define yourself as a nihilist in the conversation with Calisca, when you're told the gods aren't real you can say "I KNEW IT!"

Overall though I agree, that stuff should have had more of an impact.
It can kinda go the other way though like in Mass Effect where they bring up some random choice you made at character creation a few too many times despite you never having ever experienced it.
