What game do you recommend someone who likes the mechanics but not the setting of Baldur's Gate 3?
What game do you recommend someone who likes the mechanics but not the setting of Baldur's Gate 3?
I saw people going on about how great BG3 is on this site, so I thought I'd check out a let's play to see what all the fuss was about. I immediately fell in love with the graphics and the mechanics, such as the classes, races, spells, dice etc, but I disliked the emphasis on gore/horror in the game, and I know I wouldn't enjoy playing a game with that whole brain horror thing going on. Not to mention the price and storage requirements being excessive. (150GB!)
So, bearing in mind that, is there a game that would match my criteria, and if not, what do you think comes closest?

Fallout 1, 2 and Tactics.
Shadowrun Returns.
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader.
XCOM.
This does only assume by setting you mean "fantasy." If you just mean Forgotten Realms, there are tons of fantasy turn based tactical RPGs. Owlcat has a bunch of good shit like Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous.

Shout-out to Shandowrun Returns! OP start with 1, then 2 then 3. If you do any other order the mechanics of 1 will disappoint you, despite the story being great!

Do you mean the DLCs or have they actually made 2 sequels that I somehow never heard about?

Shadowrun Hong Kong is the proper sequel. The dragonfall expansion got a standalone director's cut release too.
