So I'm hoping to clear some back log entries I have and figured I could put this as a vote. I'm currently on a Rockman X replay of the series, currently finishing X6 and I don't think I'm going to venture into the three PS2 entries once I'm done. I did acquire Eiyuden Chronicles Hundred Heroes, of which I'll finish Rising and then delve into that, but what comes after that I ask myself?

So here's some options I've been given/been playing off and on the last few months...

Xenoblade Chronicles Trilogy - Just acquired the whole series last Christmas and I'm overdue a replay of the first game.
Pros: Loved the first game and I've heard the sequels are just as good.
Bad: Serious time sinks

Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse/Shin Megami Tensei V/ Soul Hackers
Pros: I do love me some SMT when the mood strikes me.
Cons: Going to be real with you, SMTIV:A and Soul Hackers have never really grabbed me. I did like what I played of V though.

SaGa Scarlet Graces
Pros: I'm in the homestretch of Urpina's scenario
Cons: Probably going to need a guide because I don't know what I'm doing anymore. lol

Devil May Cry 5
Pros: Love me some DMC
Cons: I don't know if my hands/controller will survive.

Uncharted Series
Pros: Apparently good
Cons: Feels like a series I would like, but it's never interested me enough to try.

Disco Elysium
Pros: Also been highly regarded and most people who know me say this game is right up my alley.
Cons: I have a terrible track record with sticking to gaming on my PC.

Lightning Returns/Final Fantasy XI
Pros: Get to check off two more FF games on my laid back replay of the series.
Cons: LR kind of killed said marathon but that might be due to XIII burnout, and XI is not so bad, but just incredibly slow for my taste.

Xenoblade Chronicles or Eiyuden Chronicles Hundred Heroes would be suitable choices. :):)

Actually just finished Eiyuden Chronicles. Waiting for the DLC coming out next month. ;)

I've been thinking about Xenoblade or Disco Elysium.

XC 2 is great. You will like it. I have not played XC 3 but I hear it is good and is near the top of my list to play as well. As you mention, I have not gotten into it yet as these games are a big time investment.

Knowing what I know about your gaming tastes I would have to say XC is the best choice. But generally speaking, if you have not played the Uncharted series, I'd go with that. It is obviously a different genre from the others on your list! But they are just fun action adventure games. Note that Uncharted 1 lacks some polish but 2-4 are excellent.

Xenoblade may be in my horizon. I've been wanting to spend more time with my Switch so it feels like the best choice. Especially since I've managed to acquire all three games for it.

Interestingly enough, the same has happened for Uncharted as well. I don't know how, but I've managed to acquire the first four games in the franchise. Course, I will have to hook up my PS3 again to play it.
