Join Date: Jul 2010 Posts: 3,301 Like: 0 Liked 3 Times in 3 Posts	Dying Game Genres @ VGChartz I think a number of the Top Ten Dying Game Genres at VGChartz is debatable but this one isn't: Isometric RPGs I refrained by saying "western RPG" because many are actually thriving, just not in the same vein as they used to be. Long ago many of these "western RPGs" were all overhead isometric games, much in the same vein as Diablo. The upcoming Diablo III is a good sign that games like this may not be as dead as they have been, but one wonders if it will kick off a new slew of like-minded games or be an odd novelty. Many of these games, such as Fallout, have moved away from their roots and embraced other play types such as the ones found in first person shooters and even action games.
