Why are old jRPGs so much better? I honestly didn't even like the genre until I discovered NES masterpieces like Dragon Quest 3. I can't put my finger on what exactly makes them so engaging, but I'd guess it's that random battles actually serve a purpose. Removing the need to manage your items and mana over a lengthy dungeon essentially makes battles a boring tedium, whereas, for example DQ1-3 and FF1, they become the main challenge.
I assume there are contemporary rpgs that function in a similar vein, but I've yet to find some.
