Oh, kind of missed that. Recommendations for a great modern JRPG in the classic style?

CrossCode - this isn’t a jrpg per ser but I’d say it’s heavily inspired by them. I’ve been playing it for a while and it really is a gem of a game. I adore it
Other modern games which are a jrpgs that I haven’t played but heard good things are Chained Echoes and Octopath Traveller

I love seeing all the CrossCode recommendations, and on Lemmy of all places. Here I thought no one knew about it!
Easily my favorite game of all time. I don’t think it ever drops the ball, the combat is awesome, the story is incredible, and the characters are so well written that you’ll think they’re actually real people.
The biggest criticism is the game’s puzzles, but they aren’t really as bad as some (very impatient) people make them out to be, and there are options to decrease the difficulty of the puzzles.

Dude I had CrossCode on my steam wishlist for like 4 years or so and never thought much about it, until at the beginning of this year, I saw a video basically saying to no let games like this one die in obscurity when they deserve the attention and praise of AAA games.
So I bought it on Steam sale and fuck, I wholeheartedly agree with that video. I just beat my first dungeon and got the first element and it’s just so much fun. Love the characters to death. Like I said, it truly is a severely underrated gem that needs more praise so I’m doing my best to spread the love lol

I love crosscode. Although I'd say it is more of an action rpg than a jrpg. The combat system is real time hack and slash with only a select set of special abilities you unlock as you play.
Still, the other elements are very jrpg-ish. Loads of people, items, and exploration. And lots of talking.
