Clockwork Knight
Arcane
Did someone mention Bully already? Kinda on the easy side, but very fun. Beating up first-graders and then running from the enraged inspectors never gets old.
Soul Nomad: the World Eaters is from the Disgaea team, and also fun. From what I played of both, SN is somewhat more serious and less grindy, with an emphasis on squads instead of individual units.
I'm playing it now, good fun . The control scheme is weird but you get used to it. There is always something to do, even playing instruments on a street corner to earn cash or playing pool (sometimes I just hang out in the pub instead of progressing the story). The game isn't very hard, the title screen even makes a point of telling you that ("A relaxing adventure!")
You can extort a nun and threaten to throw her out of your house, which she turned into an orphanage while it was abandoned, unless they start to pay you the outrageous rent (you set the value)
Codexian guessing here
I'll also suggest the two games I always mention.
S.L.A.I. - Steel Lancer Arena International (robot fights)
Colosseum: Road to Freedom (somewhat realistic gladiatior fights)
