Let's talk about isometric RPG games. I have been getting back into these again lately, specifically Divine Divinity. It's pretty good and I like it so far.

But it made me realize when I started looking on Wikipedia and other sites about the game that there are A LOT of isometric RPG games out there. I also didn't get into them too much when I was a kid so I missed out on a ton, though I played them later in life. But there are still so many I don't know...!

Let's discuss isometric RPGs. What are some of your favourites? What would you recommend, both old and new? I know they've made a come back. I kind of wanted to try out Pillars of Eternity after I finish (or get bored of) Divine Divinity and check it out since it's pretty new.

I'm not too familiar with them, personally. I wonder if the first Dragon Age counts since it had a PC version that let you zoom out and it looked quite similar to the stuff you see in that genre.
If it does, then I think that's the only one I've played. I've thought about trying them, but never really got around to it. I tend to get stuck at Character Creation

Hmm, maybe Falcon's Eye? For the most part it's just an unwieldly interface to Hack which uses square tiles rather than hexagonal though. But Hack is a great game.

Never been on this imageboard before, but I like it. It's comfy.
Divine Divinity looks comfy too. I wonder if it plays nicely with the Steam Deck.

No idea if it plays on one as I don't have one...but if it does, that is another tempting reason to think about buying one of those things. I don't game as much as I used to and even though I built a gaming desktop at the start of 2023, I haven't used it all that much since games are so boring now. And I just don't like sitting at the desktop for 1000 hours a day anymore, so a portable might be a cool thing to have.

Anyway, yeah, Divine Divinity is a nice game, check it out! It was created in 2002, so maybe that will help you determine whether or not it can run on a SteamDeck.
