MAD MAX IS FUCKING AWESOME.
Anywho, how's the Ys series? I've heard good things. Which one can I start with?
Also, Zestiria is supposed to suck, right? Berseria is the good one?
Ys is excellent if you want fast-paced action RPGs with great bosses, awesome music, and decent to great story and lore. You can start with any game, but I would strongly suggest playing Origin after I and II, seeing as it was made as a direct prequel. There are also some nods to VI: The Ark of Napishtim in Oath in Felghana, Origin, Seven, and Memories of Celceta, but these are very minor in comparison.
Do keep in mind that there have been multiple distinct gameplay styles throughout the series - I and II are 2D and use the "bump system", in which you attack enemies by running into them (no dedicated attack button), VI, Felghana, and Origin use a more traditional style with an attack button and jumping. Seven, Memories of Celceta and VIII add rolling (at the expense of jumping until VIII), have a party system with multiple playable characters at once rather than the series' usual lone protagonist, and are longer and generally more story-heavy than the earlier games.
If you want what I consider to be the perfect encapsulation of what Ys is, Oath in Felghana is an excellent one to start with.
