Disco Elysium is the better game probably, but since it is talked about a lot (rightfully so), I’ll go with the similar game I played previous to it:
Tyranny
It is the same genre with Disco Elysium (C-RPG or Isometric RPG, whatever you want to call) with also combat on top of it. Set in a bronze-age kind of time. A lot of choices that matter so as much to block whole maps and events completely if one is chosen over the other. A lot of “main paths” that can be gone on. Both positive and negative (favor and wrath) development with factions, faction leaders, companions, etc. that can affect the game and the outcomes. Great main and side cations with quite good stories behind. Combat can take place a lot of time and the game offers deep combat builds, but overall combat is pretty dull imo.
Going beyond the introduction of the game, in my opinion Tyranny has a very rare story in gaming: The evil has already won, and a tyrant-god rules the world now. You are just a lackey with middle-management status (Fatebinder, some kind of an on-field representer of the prophet/primary judge of the tyrant ruler) that judges whether act happen in accord with the will of the tyrant or not.
Real hard decisions to be made in the game. Some Obsidian humor in it. Overall not a feel-good game, like Disco Elysium. Way better soundtrack in my opinion.
