27/PC/Always wanted to be in a gaming group like ZF (the one SovietWomble is in)

I love how they still often play together across a variety of different games. And how easily shenanigans come for them whether they're playing a "serious" milsim like ArmA or something like PEAK. Anyone here in a server like that?

Hades combat, but in an open-world RPG. With towns and shit

Was wondering if there was anything like this out there. As in, isometric view like Hades, with all the hallmarks of Hades combat, but in a traditional RPG world. I don't mind if it's slower, but I do mind if it's click to move like Diablo or doesnt have mobility options like dodging. Bonus points if it can run on a toaster. I have a mid-range gaming PC, but it'd be neat if I can run it on my craptop, trying to save on power.

I blew through Hades 1 and I'm nearing the end of my Hades 2 journey, loved every smoldering step of the way. But just like with Ghost of Tsushima and other games with this level of pure juice, I know the itch will stay with me. So I wanna know what else there is to help scratch it.

One thing I like about Hades 2 is that it gave you more stuff to do around the hub. In Hades 1 the House got old so quickly that even though my mind was still kinda tired from a run, I found myself doing another one immediately just to get away from it all (which I guess was ludonarratively fitting?). The whole time though I was thinking, this gameplay loop would be fantastic on a traditional RPG setup with towns and quest notice boards and all that crap.

Recently I got started with the Baldur's Gate game on PS2 but I didnt appreciate how the only "dodge" there was a jump that I'm not even sure helped me avoid attacks reliably, I think it's just for basic platforming or idk. I also don't know if positioning really matters as much there as it does in Hades. What else is there?
