    Here’s an RPG that I haven’t seen listed yet- Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura. I spent a LOT of hours on this one back in the day (circa 2001, by Sierra-Online and Troika Games)

      Ehhhh… I’d classify that one as more Steampunk Fallout (1 or 2) or Baldur’s Gate. Not that that makes it bad - it’s great fun! Just maybe not what OP is looking for.

        The real time combat is very Diablo-ish, but it also makes the game nigh on impossible. I always played it turn-based because otherwise you died 3 seconds into the first damn encounter with wolves while searching the derigible wreckage.
