Atelier Iris (and also Mana Khemia) are kind of traditional turn based RPG's with unique twists. They have some interesting item creation systems as well and are a huge part of the games. Some of the bosses are pretty challenging as well.
Honestly though, if I had to suggest which game to try first out the ones I suggested that you haven't played, it'd be between Dark Cloud 2 and Odin Sphere. Dark Cloud 2 has superior gameplay but Odin Sphere has way better storytelling. They are both unique though and you can't go wrong with either.
Musashi Samurai Legend is one I forgot to mention but that one is hit or miss with some folk. The visuals and music are awesome but the gameplay is mediocre.
