I'm not sure I'd call D:OS isometric, definitely birds eye view camera. I believe there are mods for divinity as well as BG3 that allow more dynamic cameras. I have one for bg3 and it's definitely a different experience but if that's one you're after, you should try it out.

That's definitely possible! Nexus mods has several camera mods
