People who know me well enough to know what checks the boxes of a "Scrap-Core" video game will already know I REALLY like Path of Exile. This game lets you try some truly absurd ideas by virtue of its main progression being a massive, class-independent skill tree (With your class choice deciding your starting position on the tree and, later on, a specialized mastery tree). Each standard "Archetype" you would see in other games has more than a couple ways you can specialize them to fit YOU specifically (I myself have built my main character around an INCREDIBLY specific setup that others playing the same starting class would never consider). It's a wonderful to boot up whenever I wanna try something dumb or just chill out.
