Sorry to say that I don't have much of a preference unless you're in a specific mood. They're all good games but do different things narratively and I dont know if gameplay or cut scenes make you want tk really dig into it more.

MODERATORS
Currently playing Esoteric Ebb: I'm blown away. Best d&d game since Baldur's Gate, best story game since disco Elysium
Cyberpunk 2077 is my rec. Great game and all the launch stuff has been fixed now.
Excellent options. I can say for sure that neir is a great game and it can be short if you only do one playthrough. I did play on my steamdeck as well. Ni no kuni is fantastic but I still haven't beat it. You really can't go wrong.
One playthrough in Nier: Automata is about 55 hours. The game subdivides itself into five chapters and gives each one a lettered ending. Stopping at the first ending is akin to stopping the bible at Deuteronomy and saying “neat, I got the whole story.”
Each further chapter is dramatically different than the one that came before.
Give Cyberpunk 2077 a try. I thought it was amazing. I may have cried at the ending…
I’ve played through a few different ways. I’ve only found one ending that sank in and to me personally it feels like the true ending. I imagine the true ending is different for different players.

Where you take the fully selfish route and have to get your cybernetics fully removed and go to a life of being a civilian
I've only played one and I recommend it: NieR:Automata. If you don't choose that one, you can watch the series.
NieR: Automata is a great game, with multiple stories...I do enjoy the lore of that setting. I am working on my next playthrough as I completed the first not too long ago. I feel in a week's time you can complete several stories (I tend to take my time). Plus the gameplay is so freaking smooth, I love the weird and thoughtful dialogue. Taro is an excellent writer with a lot to say in his games.
Ni no kuni 1 is exceptional, and the sequel is pretty good
I can vouch for Ni no Kuni II, it's absolutely delightful. I'd avoid endgame DLC though because they're not good at all.
