If you want epic fantasy, where you actually care about the characters, read Lord of the Rings. Or Samantha Shannon. Or N. K. Jemisin.
Also, upset at the lack of LGBTQIA2S+ characters. When your worldbuilding is that extensive, and you describe every single character down to what they are wearing, their accent, the color of their skin, and there is ZERO queer representation, that feels like a very conscious choice.
