>>11785>>11948You are correct that old jrpg style games are a dying breed. If when you say "new" you mean "Triple A" then I'm not going to have any recommendations for you at all.
If you're willing to enjoy "Retro Style" "Indie" fare though, I have plenty of games for you.
http://www.vgperson.com/games/One standout that I'd suggest starting with is
http://www.vgperson.com/games/farawaystory.htmThis is a game where you play as an alchemist who's trying to cure a mysterious disease. Along the way she accidentally gets wrapped up in some vast conflict between heroes gods and monsters and immortal legacies of ancient kings reincarnated and split up amongst the forces of nature.
Your actual role in the story is way smaller than that, but not insignificant.
If you liked Recettear and thought "You know what this needs? An actual story." then you'll love Faraway Story.
