An old-school style WRPG is Drakensang for PC. It´s not awesome, but it fits to the description. It´s based upon the german p&p RPG "The Dark Eye". It has various races with various classes to choose from and turn-based combat in real-time.
All old series of JRPGs have roots from old computer RPGs. The exceptions are probably action JRPGs like Chrono Trigger, Legend of Mana, Tales, Star Ocean. It still doesn´t mean an old-school WRPG fan will like them, since the style and themes were changed to fit the japanese audience. If you play and like DQ then you could check the old Final Fantasies, Breath of Fire, Lufia, Suikoden and others.
