So, looking for an RPG that is NOT TURN BASED, and action oriented in its combat. I want to grind and watch number go up, but want the combat to be more hands on than turn based.

Last time I asked, I settled on Xenoblade Chronicles. I got to almost level 40 in it, then I lost 6 hours of progress cause of a save snafu, and I dont feel like going back to it.

After that I switched to Tales of Symphonia at yalls recommendation. I like the combat, but DAMN is it hard, and there is no tutorial at all for any finer points.

What other games might scratch my itch? Ill be playing on a Retroid 5, so it'll be emulated. That said, it can do a lot of switch games pretty well, so if its newer and on switch, I can try it!

For Clarity: Ps2 generation and earlier, OR on the switch. 3DS and Vita are cool too.

I love the Ys series, and VIII is my pick for the GOAT Japanese action RPG. It's on Switch and the original version was on Vita, although it's missing a significant chunk of content that was added for the PS4 version and included in all later ports.
