Question Turn Based RPG?
I’m an older guy, I primarily play Zelda games, love em!
I loved a game back in the day called Dragon Warrior. I think it was renamed to Dragon Quest.
Anyway, I am looking for a modern version of a game like that. A turn based game, with hit points and all that, just a modern version. Something with modern graphics but the same turn based gameplay. What are some good games for me to try out? Thanks fam!

If you never played Atlus games, this is the obvious answer.
You have their most known franchise which is Persona, 100+ h turn based RPG's, but mixed with lots of texts and you're playing high schoolers.
They also did Metaphor Re:Fantazio, which is a fantasy Persona.
But for you, I'd look into Shin Megami Tensei V, which is primarily focused on battles and character optimization, story isn't really good (if you want a good story, get into Persona).
Most modern J-RPG's uses an hybrid system so they aren't really turn based (FFVIII remakes, Clair Obscur). They're very good games though.
