What's your favourite turn-based RPG? For me it's FF3, both the remake and the original are so comfy and fun. I love me a job system even if it's simple.

Suikoden II. I run through it every few years. I love having a big castle full of friends and a bathtub and a kitchen. FF1 would be a close second - pure RPG gameplay and tons of ways to play it.

Any other recommendations? I really like FF1 for that reason as well, looking for something new that is light on story

Remake based on a retro game? Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song.
Pure retro?
SaGa Frontier is pretty excellent.

I guess the only games of this type still being made are mecha SRPGs

Final Fantasy V. I even do some FF Four Job Fiesta eventually

A friend and I are actually playing through FF3 right now. It's my first time, and he is a big fan of it. The job system is fun, and the moment when we got off the small island to the world at large was great.

After this I would like to play FF5.

FF5 is really damn good but I rather play the GBA remake, it's just has a few things added in like a added superboss and what not. The music is worse but I heard there's a sound restoration of the game.

it does, there's a color restoration patch too

Not a big fan of turn based rpgs but I enjoyed and finished the FF3 psp remake last year; good game. I think I used one or two geomancers for rng fun.

This, it was my first jrpg, played it on borrowed PSX. I liked Star Ocean, too.
This makes me think why I've never seen any jrpgs on pegasus (Chinese clone of NES very popular in Poland back then).

Mine isn't retro, but still have fond memories of Lunar 2.

Ogre Battle has unique gameplay and is light on story. One of my personal favorites
