I've never played a turn-based RPG before (except for some

Anachronox.

Dragon Quest VIII.

Well what systems do you got?

I'd recommend any Shin Megami Tensei game, or the Spin off (Persona).

I can recommend plenty of turn based RPGs, just need to know your console of choice.

Final Fantasy IV, then work chronologically from there

>>389251028
Divinity: Original Sin. One of the most approachable and casual friendly games of the genre in recent history. Real good if you play with a friend.

Most people use the term "turn based" actually wrong. Action Time Combat which most Japanese RPG'S use is actually purely real time. It just involves a lot of cool downs.

If you want to play a proper turn-based RPG, you'll have to pick up something like Fallout 1/2, Divinity or Underrail. Those use an ACTUAL turn based system, in which time moves forward in proper discrete chunks.

Persona 5, great Turn based RPG honestly 1st pick for the PS4. Lurn2Fuse.

Dragon Quest 11 when it comes out in the West.
God Wars (SRPG)
I am Setsuna.

If you have a PC just emulate all the SNES/Genesis/DS classics.

Depends on how hard you want your game senpai

Underrated classic. Good combat system and great writing.

>>389251028
Chrono Trigger

>>389252957
That's what I was leaning towards. That or something like Final Fantasy VII

>>389253260
Final Fantasy VII is notorious for a slow start up to my understanding

>>389251028
Fallout 1 and 2

>>389251028
If you have PS4, get Persona 5. One of the best game I've played in years.
If you have a PC, emulate Dragon Quest 4 to 6.
