Hail Warblade,
Not yet sick of RPGs from BG and Torment? ;) I've played every game on your list, and all are decent games that you generally can't go wrong with if you like that type of game. But in my eyes, some are better then others.
Divine Divinity: Graphical interface is very basic, which is good and bad. (So used to the new souped up interfaces in recent games) but I don't think the basic interface detracts from the game. The storyline isin't going to keep you on your toes, but it's not dull either. Very comic and serious at the same time. The gameplay feels like Diablo, and the dungeons only make it feel more so. The NPC interaction is great, you can respond different like BG. A big plus to me is the music. I love game music; especially if it is good, which DDs music is. So all in all, if you like Diablo and BG, you must buy this game. I loved BG and Diablo, and I certainly loved Divine Divinity. (Price might be down now too)
Hitman 2: E-mail me, I'll send you the retail CD by mail. It's definitely a great game. It's just collecting too much dust with me. I have no intention to play it again.
Arx Fatalis: I really suggest you try out the demo on this game.. I've heard so many mixed comments on this.. I liked it for a few hours, but other games are to blame for not playing more.
Grand Theft Auto 3 / Vice City: Tough tough call.. You see, the dozen or so hours I played this game I really had a blast with it. I mean it is probably the coolest game for a short period of time. Hitting insane jumps, driving around insanely fast, and getting with a hooker then beating her up and taking the cash if you feel like it. Though the game is only worth renting to me; the game's missions get VERY repetitive. You stated you weren't into racing or FPS, so the fun factor may only last a few hours for you. Definitely not worth buying then.
Morrowind: IMO this game is a MUST play, just don't play it yet, wait for the expansion comming out in the summer. Then a lot of the complaints people give it should be dealt with. (Will be the 2nd expansion).
Deus Ex: It was mind-blowing for its time. Still a great game though, worth buying at the bargain bin.
I'm currently playing SWG beta and Asheron's Call 2. I can't really recommend AC2, because I recommended it to a few friends and they hate me for it. For some reason I really like the game though.
Sorry, I wish I could write more but eyes are closing on me. Just got done working overnight shift. Be sure to tell us what you pick!
*edit* It's torment not tormnet :/
