I'm trying to find a new game, but am having trouble finding a recommendation that will fit what I'm looking for. I'm almost convinced such a game doesn't exist.
- RPG
- Turn-Based
- Easy (or allow me to grind until becomes easy)
- Casual
- No "timing-based" combat (in fact, no time-based anything - I should be able to walk away from the game at anytime for any duration)
- Easy (or provide me with a difficulty setting until it becomes easy)
- Rewards Grinding (again, "until easy")
- Modern Graphics
- PC or PS4 (I prefer PC so my wife doesn't have to be bored watching me play)
- Easy (...I just want something super easy so I can come home from a stressful job and relax for 45 minutes while playing)
- More combat than story
- Adult oriented (preference, but not necessary)
- Not too much open world - keep me focused via quests or similar
The perfect game, for me, would be a combination of WoW's battle pet mechanism, with a bit of story. Something as easy as Super Mario RPG. Something as graphically stunning as FF15. Something with a similar story:combat ratio as God of War 3 (clearly not the genre I'm looking for, just using it for the example of story:combat ratio).
Persona 5 looks cool but there is too much story. Pokemon/Digimon has the combat I'm looking for but, again, too much story. FF15 has real-time combat. Skyrim is real time and has too much open-world. Demon's Souls is one of my favorite games ever and I loved the progression of skills, upgrading equipment, etc but won't work because of real time combat and obviously too difficult (Dark Souls games were fun too, but something about Demon's Souls just rang true for me).
Even though I'm sure there isn't a game that will fit exactly what I'm looking for, I'm hoping I can find something that hits enough of my bullet points to get me interested.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
