Yeah, Persona and Dragon Quest are the ones that come to mind.

I'd even take FFXII or FFXIII as valid examples of the form, too. I don't need pure ATB (although I'd love a throwback to it), I just don't think you need to make a mediocre action game to reach a wide audience. I would have been a lot more willing to jump into FFVII Remake, FFXV or FFXVI had them not been action games. In fact, I never finished Remake, I haven't bought XVI and I am not currently planning to get Rebirth at launch.
