Dragon Age: Origins can be played in top down view for the PC...in fact, there are those who would even call it the spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate just as Bioware have said. After all, it does have strategic, tactical and team based combat.
Seriously though SilverDragon, you wouldn't recommend the long classic RPGs to anyone? Most RPG players don't care about graphics. I'd recommend all the old classics to everyone simply because they're better quality than most game nowadays and they can be very long (more so than games nowadays) and since they're cheap, it's a win win situation. Origins was 30 hours for me. DKS was 30 hours for me. Two Worlds 2 was 30 hours for me and when I replay these games, I do them even quicker because I know what to do and how to defeat enemies more easily. The only reason why Origins and DKS last me long is because they have great replay value. Baldur's Gate, NWN and Divine Divinity however have even longer campaigns past 30 hours and they still retain replay value with the many choices, skills and classes you can make.
They don't make them like they used to. That's all I can say.
Diablo 3 does look good but the series is mostly hack and slash without much dialogue, Divine Divinity is hack and slash half the time but it also contains a good amount of dialogue often with its own charm. Further more, there are quests that involve a lot of talking to people too which provides a break between the fighting parts.
