Definitely Sable, killer soundtrack by Japanese Breakfast and a great story.

I don't see you specifically mention it has to be an RPG, so I'll throw in my lot:
Deep Rock Galactic.
-100% cooperative, no pvp.
-Resources found aren't split up, everyone gets the loot.
-Difficulty modes for all level of gamers.
-Randomly generated maps. The same mission can be completely different based on biome, length, complexity, modifiers, and events. Your directional skills will be tested.
-Supportive community. One of the friendliest bunch out there if you play coop.
-If you choose to play alone, Bosco accompanies you, and can accomplish things a solo dwarf would have trouble with.
-4 classes, nice weapon and build variety. Customize for raw damage output, accuracy, AoE, or ammo efficiency.
-Not an expensive game, and DLC is all 100% cosmetic.
-Great music.

I played a good ways through Rohan but quit somewhere around 2012-13. I decided to pick it back up about a year ago and started fresh to try and grasp the new mechanics. It's definitely had some changes, but the majority of the original experience is intact as far as how the world feels.

Skyrim. There's a reason it's been released a dozen times.

If she enjoys the story, and wants to try something outside of the high fantasy genre, then SW:TOR is right up her ally, as well as being FTP. Her back ground in WoW will make a lot of the mechanics familiar, and each class gets its own story quests. It's perfect for low-stress solo play.

Kena Bridge of Spirits. Pretty solid zelda-like. Beautiful visuals, somber story, scalable difficulty. Not too long.

yeah I know, Discord is still not much better, the only benefit it has is not a single user can get ur IP and DDoS you, still Chinese corporation and a fucking shitty UI.

I don't think it looks super different but I don't think it looks like dlc either, just a pretty direct sequel. what would they need to show for you to think it doesn't look like dlc?

Man, I loved this game, but I just couldn't continue when they did the massive overhaul that introduced skill trees, so I departed somewhere around Rohan. Exploring the world was so much fun, especially Moria.

Holy hell, you are a piece of work. 😂
Cope on then, keyboard warrior.
But seriously, work on your reading comprehension. For everyone else's sake if not your own, and maybe consider coming up with better snark while you're at it. Gl mate.

Tchia was nice enough when I tried it recently. Haven't played too much of it though. You can become the pet by soul-transforming into animals to solve puzzles!
Sea of Thieves, once you get around slooping solo and being aware that PvP is avoidable by a good captain - but it takes time to become a good solo captain. You can buy a pet I think. Not sure if that's for real money though. You can buy a pet rock.
EDIT: Just for the trololz - how about she tries Elden Ring? I hear it's a wonderfully relaxing, easy game. You can summon your own goat-horse and also other animals (like wolves! They're fun). Whenever you die - if you die, I mean, it's a wonderfully relaxing, easy game after all - you respawn and can try again! Combat couldn't be simpler, it's attacking, dodging, and blocking. You can avoid PvP by playing it entirely offline too!

Great game for it's time. It was the first JRPG I ever played!

Ah so you can put hard returns into comments.
Like this.
It's quite easy see?
Amateur, your opinions are amateur. You can't critically analyse. Hence, amateur.
Using words like "Elucidate" doesn't do a great job of hiding that fact.

My wife really enjoyed don't starve/together, ticks most your needs but is a little difficult in the late game and learning the game takes a bit. But I enjoyed it myself so we started off playing it co op

This! Extremely relaxing, just explore the cosmos, plenty of difficulty customization.

It's not an excuse for everything I'm stating here. It's an explanation - which you don't deserve - for why the formatting was bad. Your reading comprehension is still failing you miserably here. I don't think attempting to argue a moot point with me (to denigrate an opinion, no less, because you don't agree) is the best use of your time when you clearly have other things you need to work on.
Finally, amateurish in what way? Care to elucidate? If you can.

Good times! I've got my CDs around here somewhere, I think I might have to fire it up again one day.
