No JRPG has genuinely good gameplay. None.
Any JRPG being good is entirely subjective to how much you like the world and characters. Even if one is lofted for having a good story, it's not worth trudging through dozens of dozens of repetitive mindless content so you have to really like the characters, music, aesthetics, etc otherwise you're not gonna have fun.

All of those mechanics are superficial and actually take away from the already boring gameplay. Putting a rhythm game in a jrpg does not = real gameplay, not does it make it more fun because at the end of the day the actual gameplay is the same. The rhythm aspect doesn't magically make your commands more interesting or defense have more depth

Not Abyss. You are going to try to use the game's mechanics with the AI and you'll never be able to do it and it will frustrate you. Unless you have friends for multiplayer, then you'll have an absolute blast.

What. Tales are popular by people that play 'em multiplayer with friends sure but plenty of people, the vast majority in fact, play them solo as 99% of other JRPGs. It's like saying you can't play Symphonia or Vesperia or Graces without friends.

You're practically in diapers. Your brain is tricked into believing the game is more adult than other JRPGs literally just because it uses a realistic style. If E33 had an anime style literally no one would think it's story is any more "mature" than most other JRPGs.

Play anything by Masato Kato or Yasumi Matsuno if you want that “adult” feel without the waifu crap. Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre — all heavy on politics, war, betrayal, and don’t babysit the player with spiky-haired teens screaming about friendship. Also worth checking out is Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne if you can handle the minimal handholding and oppressive atmosphere. All of them actually feel written by someone over the age of 16.
