Atom RPG, wasteland 3, etc. Not as old school isometric, but the vibe is almost there. I do miss the quirky humor, though. It is a shame the TV show is as campy as it is. Fallout 4 was all the dumb mechanics that weren’t the game. Unfortunately, I don’t think we’ll ever get a NV2 or the vibe of NV set in a different location.
Too late played through those games, I require more. I’ve also played through Wasteland 1 in a deluded fevor state when I got covid.
Also yeah I doubt we’ll ever get a NV again especially with how Bethesda seems dead set on doubling down on the camp, which is honestly a shame because for all its flaws Fallout 3 has a pretty good balance of goof and grimness. Maybe we could get something akin to that if Owlcat were to make a post apocalyptic game since they do 40k pretty well without too much grimderp encroachment. Also play Roguetrader and Wrath of the Righteous if you haven’t, real fucken solid games and don’t worry about the devs being Russian they fucked off to Cyprus early in the war.

See, this is why I love fedi. Thanks for the recommendations!
No problem, frankly speaking they are not given nearly as much credit despite being really solid devs since their games are relatively linear at least compared to what they are inspired by. Honestly I don’t really mind since too many CRPGs have a bit too much openness resulting in a confusing experience like their first major game Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Also they are making a Dark Herasy game which is neat, hope it has an All Guardsman Party reference.
Also another recommendation I forgot about, Arcanum it was made by the same devs as Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines who also happened to be Interplay alumni meaning it’s got the same weird crackhead energy as Fallout 2 but instead of the Enclave being obviously based off of the Nazis you get literal 19th century steampunk eugenics. Games great 10/10 will shoot wizard with elephant gun again.
