RPG as a generic umbrella term is not working since 2000.

For our industry to grow, we must also make a distinction between recreational games and competitive games, the same way there is a difference between recreational games/sports and competitive sports

that's actually accurate

most images on this thread are just trolling, but this one is for real. You can't argue against its logic.

>>321201460
By the very definition given on RPGs in the picture Mass Effect would have to be considered one. Regardless off how butthurt you still are over the last 20 minutes of the third game.

Other than that, yeah. I can see a tangible difference going on.

How the shit do you not finish Portal. It's a short and sweet game that you can get through in a sitting or two.

not enough depth for mass effect to feel like an rpg. It's more like a live custcene, interactive story thing

girls don't play video games.

They stream, for male attention.
They play MMOs, for male attention.

They don't actually touch single player games or games where nobody panders to them, or games that are too challenging

But it has dialog choices that give you input on the personality of your character. The definition makes no mention of how malleable the personality has to be so one must assume that in order to qualify as an RPG it can be as simple as "personality a" or "prersonality b" Whether or not the dialog is "rich" is purely subjective, so that word can be thrown in the trash. It also has detailed lore. Everything from the races, the the tech, to the settings have established back stories that are both brought up in the dialog and further detailed in the in game codex. Thus, Mass Effect is an RPG by the definition of the picture.

>Mass effect choices
>"This is dialog. How will you answer?"
> - "We should think carefully about it and make the right choice"
> - "Fuck thinking, I am such a badass"
Sure, but it was a very bad rpg. No matter what you had chosen, things would go mostly unaltered, except for one or two dialogs. The exceptions were few are you can think about all of them on the top of your head.

The walking dead is a RPG or an interactive story?

It is an interactive story, the devs plaster that logo themselve on the game introduction.

Mass effect is an interactive story with CPG elements.
The walking dead is an interactive story without cpg.

Having level up shit an RPG does it not make.

It's not that Harry potter is bad its that it is a book that does not align with the idea of "high" literature because it has the stigma of being a children's book.

People that hold up Tolstoy, Orwell, Austen, Camus, Marquez, Poe, etc. Do so from a position that what they deem literature is true literature. All else need not apply because its shit because it's new. Or it is shit because it isn't the right genre or doesn't jump through the right hoops, etc.

Literature is literature and while the classics are inevitably where we have come from we should never turn an arrogant eye to what is coming and yet to come.

But a lot of people do anyway.

I'm okay with breaking down "RPG" into more popularized terms if it would make it easier for me to search for similar games based off of genre and style. JRPG, Turn-Based, cRPG and the like are nice, but it'd be nice to have something simpler I guess.
