It was this PS1 arena-based game where you picked a character and then fought against other characters by setting traps and so on. If I recall correctly it had an isometric view and a kind of gothic/dark fantasy look to it. I can't remember much more about it, I only played a demo, not the full game. Does it ring a bell for anyone?

No, that's not it, it took place in small arenas, not full dungeons.

So you hold up fantastic creatures/demons/whatever with toy guns...

Nah I came across that while trying to Google this but it wasn't that either. I think it probably had a somewhat similar visual style though.

I too was going with Deception because that's a trap setting game. but it's first person and not a fighter.

for a fighter i would say Gekido or Fighting Force

No, it wasn't actually a fighting game.

No it wasn't Power Stone. I think there were some similarities but it was less action-y and much darker.

I just looked at a comprehensive list of PS1 demos and nothing rang a bell. So maybe it was a PS2 game? I'm pretty sure it was for PS1 though.

I just remember that it was fairly realistic (for the time anyway), but also had a dark fantasy/gothic look (but not in a scary/horror kind of way) and I'm pretty sure the characters were all human but I don't remember any more details.

No, it wasn't either of those, but it might have looked kind of like Trapt (and also Deception, Devil May Cry, that kind of thing).

No, I looked into Deception 1, 2 and 3 extensively because they do sound similar but I'm sure it was none of those.

Probably not the one but this one came as a demo with Legacy of Kain: SR

The only game that comes close (isometric, and in an arena setting) on that demo disc would be MoHo.

True, but the games you listed appeared on the same demo disc I found so I went out on a limb with MoHo.
