Anyone a fan of Wizardry, or other first-person dungeon crawlers? (lemmy.world)

I think I played whichever one was on my Amiga waaaay back in the day, and whichever one was on PS3 for a bit. I was also a big fan of some of the Might and Magic games, which I feel were something of a bridge between the old dungeon crawlers and something like Morrowind.

Anyway I was thinking of trying one out again. Any recommendations, maybe one with modern QOL features to ease in?

I see there's a remake of Wizardry 1(?) and remasters of the Etrian Odyssey games in the past couple years. I'm also kind of intrigued by Undernauts, which looks like it might throw a little Shin Megami Tensei flavor in?

Etrian Odyssey series was all pretty interesting to me. Idk what changes the HD releases have, but I generally enjoyed playing the later ones compared to the earlier ones. Shin Megami Strange Journey and Labyrinth of Refrain/Galleria were interesting too.
