I should probably come out and say that I really don’t get them, but I’ll try not to be a contrarian in this thread lol. Looking for genuine perspectives.

Depends on what you like. Final Fantasy 1-6 are great fun. The combat mechanics are interesting when they need to be, but most battles only last a few rounds and most importantly don’t take minutes of playing the same full motion video every fight which is why I really dislike all the FFs past 6, with 6 being the weakest.
The stories are fine, and the pacing of the world “expanding” based on when you get your boat, or airship, or whatever is fun.
The Dragon Quest series is great because of it’s humor, and the balance between mechanical knowledge and luck feels good, with DQ11 being the best one so far. Of course the SNES classics really define the genre. If you don’t like Chrono Trigger, Earthbound or Final Fantasy 4 then you probably don’t like JRPGs.
