A different mythic part can alter your experience considerably, nevertheless i would recommend playing something else for a bit before returning to avoid burning out.
Kingmaker is a good option, although you'll find that it's a bit less polished than WotR. On top of that the final dungeon extremely tedious, you fight the same composition of creatures over and over again in an extremely confusing map, that part of the game is just not fun. And being on Luna you AFAIK can't install mods that make this part of the game less un-fun. Overall if you loved WotR you'll at least like kingmaker.
Looking forward in Owlcat's lineup, I liked Rogue Trader even more than WotR.
Other good options are the older Obsidian games: Both Pillars of Eternity games and especially Tyranny if you haven't played those already.
If you already played through those, maybe look at the 3 Shadowrun games, they are a bit niche and the RPG system in use is kinda quirky but I had a blast with them.
(I have no idea which of these recommendations are available on Amazon Luna in your region)
If you like cyberpunk, I can strongly recommend the Shadowrun games. It's not the strongest RPG ever, but it's a fun experience with all the classic cyberpunk tropes.
The final bits of Kingmaker truly did make me get pretty close to actively loathing and resenting the game, truth be told. Even before that there were some questionable encounter designs but the endgame is truly either designed by absolute idiots or developers who truly and fiercely hate their players.
It's a shame because there are some cool things in Kingmaker and I personally really like the grounded story and several of the companions. But it's a very hard game to recommend. It's also like 200 hours long.
Oh Tyranny. I forgot about that one. That unique RPG where the evil path is the main one.
