If someone wants to try an updated version of the isometric Fallout games, check out Wasteland 2 and 3. Wasteland 3 has a lot less micromanaging inventory because there is no weight limit. The main difference in gameplay is you control a squad of 4 players instead of one, and you can hire a few NPCs along the way. It's a different backstory, but the environment is similar with remains of real cities in a post-apocalyptic future. They are all on Gamepass and there is a refreshed version of the 1988 original that can be played on an Xbox or PC if you don't like keyboards and mice.
Sounds like kenshi with less suffering.
Just a reminder that Fallout was not just inspired by but basically an indirect sequel to Wasteland.
