Heya.
I'm looking for a JRPG on PC, something that scratches a specific itch. The main things I want are:
- Turn based or tactical combat ahead of action if possible (I will consider action, though).
- A more modern game with 3D design.
- Meaningful and rewarding exploration.
- Challenging combat.
- The option to grind combat while exploring if I feel like levelling up my party.
A few games have caught my eye that seem to fit, the main ones being:
Final Fantasy XII: Zodiac Age
Dragon Quest XI
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel
A good story would be a bonus, but really what I want here is exploration and a battle system that will let me just relax and explore while I level my party as much as I want, challenging end-game encounters and optional/secret bosses to gear up for would also be a big bonus.
I really like the aesthetic of FF12, more so than the other games, and that's the one I'm leaning toward atm... but I'd really like some feedback before I make up my mind.
Thanks a lot!
