I have still never played one, I was a jock in HS so i wasnt allowed to dabble in the genre.

I searched reddit and they're recommending 20 hour games. This is too long

Xenogears typically takes around 60 to 80 hours to complete, with the main story averaging around 60 hours.

Rpgs really aren't worth it ever

Either not rewarding or bad story

Too much grinding nothing even fun about them

It's something you do as a kid to just wate time because ur too dumb to value it

A lot of the SNES games aren’t that long. Chrono Trigger is really short and really easy so it’s not a bad starting point. It’s also highly acclaimed by Losers.

FF7 (original) can be played on 3x speed on any of the remasters. Gets you through battles quickly af. You can also turn encounters off.
