Hope it's a good a place as any to ask this. I've got an itch for a jrpg in the classic style, but one with modern conveniences.
Never finished FFVI because I put it down and later didn't know where I was nor was doing. Completed Golden Sun I and II, but only with the aid of walkthroughs. Tried a buch of others but don't really remember them.
Edit: Recommendations for a great modern JRPG in the classic style?
It's hard when we don't know what you have played. My go to recommendation is always Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch if you never played it. It will always hold a special place in my heart. I feel Octopath and Bravely Default are played by 99% of people interested in jrpgs. Chained Echoes should be a good recommendation as well. But you might have played all these.
Basically the only JRPGs that I remember anything of, story or mechanics wise, is FFVI and Golden Sun I&II. So really a blank slate and looking at at pretty much all recommendations.
Go with my mentions then! They are awesome!
