I would like to get back into JRPGs again, because I have fond memories. But I think they are made for teens, and I don't think I could suffer through the combat again.

I cannot stand the kind of combat that requires you to hit specific buttons at varying intervals, but the old, classic eastern-style games I simply cannot get enough of. I'm really happy to see how many have recently made the transition to home computers, and I hope that continues.

Gotta agree with @posfan12 on the target age. I can still enjoy the JRPGs but it tends to be despite the targeted age of the game.

I can forgive the childish looks of any game IF the combat is difficult and challenging. Games like Final Fantasy( at least the early ones) and the Disgae series come to mind in this regard, as well as many others.

I prefer a proper turn based RPG with lots of options and multi-characters.
What games are these? The only recent Action RPG I've played on a gamepad is Witcher 2.

Witcher 2 is the only "roller" RPG I've played, and it was an okay game. Usually I prefer turn based tactical combat, but Witcher 2 was not bad. Gothic 1 & 2 combat is also serviceable. (Can't remember if you roll in those games though.)
