Just finished Arcanum, Fallout 1, and Fallout 2. All three were all fucking amazing games (even though Fallout's combat system was so irritating) because the immersive story and quest were so good. But is there any more games like these? These are old graphic RPG's, but their gameplay, plot, and etc makes up for it so good.
Can anyone else recommend some good ol' isometric RPG games? Preferably with awesome story and quests.
The three you listed off kick so much ass. Only other I can suggest are baldurs gate, and (maybe) XCOM.
Survival Crisis: Z. It's a perfect zombie shooter RPG with a complete non-linear sandbox style of play. You can do side missions for faction leaders (SWAT and Rebels) for money, pop caps in people that annoy you (Rebels), or just aimlessly dick around and shoot zombies to hell.

I haven't played them yet, but you could try out more of Black Isle's RPGs like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale.
Baldur's Gate is very very good and I highly recommend it.
Planescape: Torment.
Do it now.

Diablo 1/2 are good isometric rpgs with the old-school graphics and etc. Plots are a bit weak though.
super mario RPG: legend of the seven stars. awesome graphics for the SNES, a few bugs on emulation (I'd reccomend save states towards the end of bosses, the game apparently always freezes when you get the 5th star peice, plus timing for geno's specials is arsed up) works great on the wii virtual console at least.
I dunno, FF:T was isometric, and it's pretty fun, good story and what not, a little cliche though.
Avernum 1-5 were awesome games if you found the lore interesting enough and there were some truly awesome encounters, puzzles, and quests along the whole way. Don't expect to sit down and play through any of them quickly though, heh.

Diablo 2 with the expansion, although it's more hack'n'slash than RPG.
I guess Wasteland (Fallout is the spiritual successor of Wasteland) is Isometric, it looks more like a game boy game then anything, its still pretty damn good.

even though it's been suggested, Icewind Dale, Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 is all I can think of.
Haven and Hearth? It's isometric, and an RPG, not sure if it's what you are looking for.
If you like fallout 1 & 2 then you will like Baldur's Gate as its made by the same company.
Eschalon: Book 1. It's an indie RPG, sort of like Ultima. Well worth your time.

Jagged Alliance 2. Great tactical rpg/rts with tons of guns/tradeskills/skills etc (even better when u download a mod that adds even more stuff)

Age of Decadence is pretty good from what I hear.
X-com. It has that classic feel to it, and is the most challenging, fun, involving game I've ever played. It's also the number 12 game of all time on IGN.
Fallout Tactics?
Final Fantasy Tactics.
Advance, Advance 2 or the first PS one. (If you want a challenge get the PS one)
