Is there anyway to change in game resolution?
EEex mod has a "Scale interface" module that lets you do it incrementally. It is kinda complicated to set up though. After installing, you need to open "EEex_Modules.lua" located in /override, then swap the flag on B3Scale from "false" to "true" to active it. Then you either use the in-game cheat console and the command:

My defense was not, in fact, impregnable.
Bubb's EEex mod. There are technically 3 timers, but I only chose one - the one that shows rounds. There's also one for modal actions like Find Traps or Turn Undead and the third one for contingencies.

How to progress the story in SOA? New to Baldur's gates.
Did you make your flail +3 thing on main floor? Starting with SoD, you start running into these creatures with some very specific immunities and buffs unless you look them up you would have no idea why you are getting your asses handed. This is why I suggest you get this at the very least, https://github.com/Bubb13/EEex. If you hit shift on anyone, you see list of spells active. Better yet use this like you own Beastiary: https://github.com/tapahob/BG2RadarOverlay, when you wonder why you cannot damage something or someone.

Medieval games?
Baldur's Gate 2 (You kinda need to play 1 to understand 2, and 1 has mods that add in romances that are then expanded into the second game. The second game does have romances but I'm not a fan of them. Especially the base game, non-Enhanced Version romances. However that site I linked and several others have romance NPC you can download that add dozens of hours to your playthrough.)(I have hundreds of hours in these games just from the mods alone.)

I finally get the Anomen thing after 20-odd years.
Oh, sorry, I meant the BG1NPC mod, which adds banters, quests, interjections, and romances for all of the original NPCs. I will say that I don't agree with the writers' interpretation of every character, but on the whole it adds a lot of life to BG1, bringing the level of character chatter up to BG2's, so I haven't played without it in a long time.

Best immersion and quality-of-life mods for a first playthrough
If you're expecting the kind of party banter and interjections you got from your listed games, I will suggest the BG1 NPC Project. https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/npcs/bg1npc/ Otherwise a lot of party members will join and then pretty much never speak up again.

Coming from PoE1 for Baldur's Gate 2
If the quiet party members are a factor for you, then I suggest https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/npcs/bg1npc/ which adds a lot of dialogue and romance and quests to the existing characters and a lot of people won't play without it. Some people think your first playthrough should remain pure and vanilla without mods, but I feel that if you're coming from more modern games, there's nothing wrong with modding them to be what you want.

Which companions do you play with the least?
Yeah, that's definitely a deal breaker, but thankfully, you can easily mod their spawn locations. The Gibberlings3's Tweaks Anthology and BG1 NPC Project have a component to move those NPCs to more convenient locations. Unmodded, you can still spawn them with the CreateCreature cheat.

BG series mod recommendations?
For BGEE, I would consider the BG1 NPC project a must-have.

Best similar games to DA series? [spoilers all]
I love the two original Baldur's Gate games, but there was almost no character development in the first one. They didn't really introduce romances, party banter, and important personal quests til BGII. The plus side is the Baldur's Gate modding community is huge and wrote all those things into BG1. https://www.gibberlings3.net/mods/npcs/bg1npc/
