Isometric RPGs are a bit of a niche genre. While the more popular action and open-world RPGs dominate the headlines and the sales charts, isometric RPGs pull the camera back and give you a broader view of the game world. These more specialized role-playing experiences are built for a certain kind of player, one who loves reading long strings of text and doesn't mind maneuvering through long lists of stats and ability effects to craft their perfect character build, or just to figure out how the new skill they unlocked actually works.
