Check out Seven: The Days Long Gone
http://www.pcgamer.com/seven-days-long-gone-review/
PC Gamer gave it an 8.1, but I just just IGN's and their lazy 4 min style reviews, who gave it a 4 lol. It's funny because two of their staff were gushing over it last year (Video below). I can never understand how a site can be so inconsistent like they are, they're incredibly unprofessional. The reviewer, who has no perception beyond his skin, says you're dropped into a world blind, as though you're a purposeless in a shallow setting. It's absolutely ridiculous because the guys in the preview (again below) only played for a short time and raved, like I did, about how great the world building is.
I picked it up last night, I really like it. It's a great first effort for sure, very unique game. Apparently it has some former Witcher devs, but this is no Witcher, nor is Baldur's gate meets Witcher as the clowns below state. It's a fun action RPG, with a blend of mechanics, though it is top down. I like Isometric games, especially when I have full control over the camera.
As someone else said, Elex is great, excellent really and probably more up your alley. These are the guys who made the Gothic series, top notch roleplaying.
Here's a great review for it
I don't know. The mechanics look very clunky and robotic on Elex. Its why I never got into Two Worlds or Gothic games not just because the frame rates and resolution was bad on them but also the voice acting.
