Default Re: OT: a nice RPG-ish game?

I understand that someone palyng DomII games is more PC oriented then console oriented, but no-one has considered anj jap like RPG!

If one loves freedom of movement (some one remembers 'Fairy tales' (or something like) on Amiga?), unique char deploying, balanced difficulty, the JRPG are not so good. But on the other hands, if one likes the storytelling aspect, they are the top.
I started playing Bard's Tale, Ultima IV, V, VI, then I approached Diablo. I remember the pure Hack&Slash of Diablo, and I didn't liked it. If I go for H&S and dont' bother the story I want a very deep system, like Dom2 or ADOM or NH. The JRPG dont' have a very balnced system, often are easy and sometimes frustrating. But some have the finest world and story (ancd characters) ever built.

Some titles i have in mind:
Chrono Trigger (SNES)
Final Fantasy VII, IX (PS, PS2)
Xenogears, (PS)
Vagrant Story (not really an RPG but beautiful) (PS)
Suikoden, (PS)
Final Fantasy Tactic (PS)
Front mission III (PS)
these Last two are 'strategic' JRPG, some worsd to indicate tactical party combat game with RPG elements.
