Ok so I've finished Divinity: Original Sin and now need something else to fill the quite considerable void(no pun intended) it's left. Like most of us I've got more games than I'm ever likely to play, but I've whittled it down to the following candidates.

Action RPGs
Middle Earth: Shadows of Mordor. Heard good things about it.
The Witcher 3. played 1 & 2, really enjoyed them, & everyone is singing it's praises to high heaven!!!
Mass Effect 3. played 1 & 2, really enjoyed them, maybe even more than The Witcher 1 & 2.
Skyrim, done 100+ hours, still nowhere near finished would like to mod the **** out of it.
Fallout 3 GOTY, still nowhere near finished & would like to mod the **** out of it.
Fallout NV GOTY, only played a couple of hours &* would like to mod the **** out of it.

Isometric RPGs
Baldur's Gate 1 EE got about 6 hours in, didn't grab me initially, but I reckon it'll get better. *
Baldur's Gate 2 EE *
Icewind Dale 1 Complete EE. Heard it's the best of the EE RPG's
Planescape Torment. Got pretty far into this when it 1st came out & really enjoyed it.
Pillars of Eternity. Haven't got it yet, but my training partner is playing it and absolutely loves it, & can be got for about ~£15. Thing is I've got loads already so not sure I want to get any more games.
Wasteland 2. not heard much about this but looked ok, so got it on the Christmas sale.

*With the Baldur's Gate games, I've also got the original games modded with the Throne of Bhaal extender to join 1 & 2 together & add more content so could play that.

So as you can tell I've really got no idea, so over to you, impart your wisdom! :)

:EDIT:

Oh yeah I've got GTA V as well. :D

Let me know how you lean, I love pretty much all of the games you've mentioned and really envy people coming at them with fresh eyes.

I started Shadows of Mordor an played a few hours but I just seemed to be blundering round the starting area helping the Orcs get promoted. So I started the Witcher 3 and really like it(not that I disliked SOM). I think I play them both for a bit longer and see what I get into more.

I also decided against deciding against getting Pillars of Eternity as I managed to get it for a tenner so that's another big game that's on the list.
 
Completed Shadows of Mordor last night, really enjoyed it. Huge change of pace from Divinity: OS. While it wasn't bad, the story was pretty flimsy compared to Divinty, but I think that was purely secondary concern to The Nemesis System. Do the DLCs add to the story or are they just challenges, with the exception of The Bright Lord?

Onto either Pillars of Eternity, Mass Effect 3 or The Witcher 3 next I think.

On with GTA V at the mo, it's a fantastic game! Playing Pillars as well, but with limited time I'd usually leave it until the weekend when I've a good 4-5 hours to have a go at.
