This is a bit of a different tack to the other suggestions, but you could look at Crusader Kings. It's a strategy game, but instead of saying as a country or similar, you play as specific person. When that person dies, you play as their heir, in whatever situation you left for them. There's less depth to some of the role playing systems than there would be in an RPG, but on the other hand it has thousands of characters dynamically simulated to do their own things, so stories emerge from that instead. 2 and 3 are both solid, 2 has a bit of a steeper learning curve and isn't as well balanced as 3 but it is cheaper and has more systems expanded through DLC if you do get in to it
