DQ 11 is great if you like old school jrpgs. The combat is basic turn based, nothing fancy and it's full of tropes. If you enjoy that sorta thing, you'll love it. It's very well done and very charming. My only gripe is that it's quite long. I was burned out by the end of the 2nd act and didn't even see the real ending. If you don't mind 80h games that won't be an issue.

I wasn't a fan of Xenoblade 2. The combat never really clicked with me and eventually regular battles were talking minutes and I was not having fun. The story never really grabbed me and the randomness of the blades turned me off. A lot of others enjoy it tho.

I loved Octopath Traveler, which doesn't seem to be a common opinion. The battle system and job system were really fun for me, but part of that is because I made myself play in a specific way to keep it engaging. Folks who bash it usually complain that it gets too easy too fast. The story is also kinda weak because it's a bunch of independent threads for each character that don't relate at all until the very very end.
