Top 20 Best Turn-Based Isometric RPGs To Play in 2023 on PC
Ойындар
Dungeons and Dragons, dice rolls, intricate builds, and diverse classes are quintessential elements that evoke the world of RPGs. However, when we introduce the term 'isometric' into the mix, it conjures images of the iconic classics that have shaped the genre since the 1990s.
This was the era marked by legendary titles like Baldur's Gate, Fallout, and Wasteland, which steered Western RPGs into a prolonged golden age.
Their legacy endures, continuing to influence and inspire contemporary titles. These modern games, leveraging advanced development technologies, skillfully blend mechanics and graphic styles reminiscent of the old guard while simultaneously innovating in numerous other facets.
We have often talked about isometric CRPGs. However, in this video, we aim to curate a list of the most recent and noteworthy titles in this genre that truly merit attention in 2023.

100% Agree! Such an underrated gem, and my favourite Alien computer game full stop, even more than Isolation.
Great list! Love so many of these games. BG3 GAME OF THE YEAR 2023
Great list but definitely missing King Arthur: Knight's Tale, especially now that it has been updated to version 2.0, and the price is 60% cheaper.
Divinity original sin master piece

Show us gameplay footage, not cut scenes or trailer. Its of no use
BG 3 won the Game of the Year
Knights of the Chalice 2 and Troubleshooter should deserve a place in these kinds of lists. Oh well, tastes vary.

Indeed, they are great games. We made hard choices, another game that deserves to be here is UnderRail..
How about a showcase of TBG with unique mechanics? For example Troubleshooter unique skill mastery system. hmm, I played chinese xianxia games now, which bring their own uniqueness due to the established genre, but the problem is these indie devs cant afford translation dedicated team.
You should check what "isometric" means, most games here are classic 3D games.
Where is the normal guy Marcelo?
Disco Elysium ?? Really I don't think this game is Turn-Based Isometric RPGs. An isometric RPG it is, but as I played there is no turn-based element, yes different character builds based on mental character traits and dice rolling and that's about it. It's a good thing that the video is about Turn-Based Isometric RPGs because the absence of someone from the Shin Megami Tensei/Persona franchise meant that the list could be incomplete. However, I agree that they (SMT/Persona) are not isometric RPGs.

Several great RPGs in there - but can we stop calling mission-based/tactical combat/strategy games RPGs? Thanks.
encased was a major letdown, I couldn't even finish it due to boredom. So hollow.
Xenonauts 2

Yeah, still in early access, but it's a great game :)
I just couldn't get into DoS2. I mean, it feels like almost every character is a mage or potentially a mage, or they can all transmogrify a tentacle arm. Jesus, i just wanted to hit someone with a sword! I'm not ashamed to admit that i like to play Pathfinder on the lowest difficulty. I don't have all day.
seems a bit late for a "games to play in 2023"

All the Tactics Ogre games suck.

Both are great, but IMO Wasteland 3 is light-years better, in almost every sense!
ya, I have all these games.
