You might enjoy more classical CRPGs, the Bethesda version of games tends to be more environmental comma /action RPG.
Fallout 1, fallout 2, even fallout New Vegas are closer to the CRPG format.
The best modern example is baldur's gate 3. That is definitely a CRPG where you can get invested in the story.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEQ7KR9enYdQsB6kcMnw0NA This YouTuber reviews lots of CRPGs, they're a good resource if you want to see if you're interested in other options. There's an excellent CRPGs out there that don't cost a lot of money. That are easy to get lost in for days

Thanks! I do like the crpg genre and played a decent amount of fallout 2. Not too competition, but I imagine I got pretty far or possibly near the end.
I think there is a series called dragon fall. I have that from Epic games as a free game.
Are there any specific crpgs you recommend?
Boulder gate 3 of course.
Space wreck is a good one
Divinity original sin 1 and 2
Depending on how patient you are atom RPG is really good
Colony ship was excellent
Wasteland 2, wasteland 3. More action RPG than CRPG but if you like the fallout 1 and 2 series, it kind of scratches the itch. But not as much narrative impact
Disco Elysium is pleasant, but it's less CRPG and more experimental exploration, but it's nice
I haven't played it myself but I hear good things about rogue trader
I really liked baldurs gate, but got burnt out by the time I made it to act 3 and just quit the game. Maybe I’ll go back to it at some point.
I loved disco, it was the first game I played on the steam deck. After a couple hours, my wife asked me what I was watching😂 she thought Cuno was so annoying.
I’ll check out these other ones, I’d love to find a new crpg.
