I've even tried asking AI chatbots about this game and still haven't find it yet. It was 2008-2010 and my grandpa used to download (in his PC) a bunch of really weird games I've never heard of and this one specifically was the weirdest one.
It was a third person steampunk and open world game. I didn't even knew it's name at the time bc the name didn't show on the screen. It starts with a
cutscene of a airship wich inside of it there's a man (I don't remember how he was) and a woman, This woman has a short dark red hair and wears brown steampunk clothes. Idk what happened but the airship explodes and they fall on a island and then you start controlling the girl, the man doesn't show anymore. On this island there's many ppl walking around, they look like old babys (???). They're short, bald and walk around naked(they only have butts), but you can see they're adults by their faces. You can kick their ass and they kind of fly and fall to the ground then start walking again as if nothing happened. Some of them are fixing a destroyed ship. Walking through this island there's some musical notes you collect and they complete a song that's on a paper showing on the right side of the screen. I remember I could swim and dive in the sea and I could see underwater, there was some more islands but Idk if I could swim to them bc they were too far away, maybe that's what the ship were for. I never got out of that island and didn't know what to do exactly at the time bc the game was in English and that's not my first language. I know it sounds crazy, I even asked my dad if he remembers this game to make sure it wasn't a dream but it's real, that was a real game. I've been looking for this game for years now and this is my last hope. :cry:

You can also try this category:

And if not there, there's 3rd person view games. Also, you could fill in some gaps in the description. I have the impression that your game was fully 3D, like, for example, Psychonauts?

Was it a commercial game? You said your grandfather downloaded it, was it from a free game website or some kind of demo version?

I don't think it really fits the description, but the game 'Arcanum: Of Steamworks & Magick Obscura' starts with an airship being shot down by some ogres(?) in airplanes. It uses an isometric third person view, and it's a steampunk rpg.
