Vagrant Story and Symphony of the Night are the best two, and probably the least aged out of the PS1 titles, with VS still having more advanced mechanics than any modern RPG and every sidescrolling platformer copying SotN as much as possible. The Final Fantasies are still playable but extremely time consuming and aside from the first "disc" of FFIX none of the storylines hold up at all. Xenogears is like 80 damn hours and just extraordinarily dry aside from the first 5-10 hours, probably aged the worst out of any nostalgia fueled JRPG.
God Hand is also up there, fairly interesting game but it's sort of a love it or hate it type of game.
Alternatively you can just sign up for PS+ for 3 months for like 18 bucks and get 10-15 free games, most of which are pretty good.
