OP probably pronounces it "rropedge"
>>342096132
the word is a misnomer. All you need is stats to consider your game as having RPG elements.
If the game happens to completely revolve around those stats then you've got yourself an RPG.

I'm still convinced this kid was trolling. Nobody hears someone pronounce an acronym then immediately proceed to pronounce it differently for no reason.

People have been saying zelda games are rpgs forever.
I hate that, it's a fucking action adventure game.

BUT YOU PLAY A ROLE
Final Fantasy XV is not a RPG.
It's probably a 3rd Person Action Game.
Whatever it is, it is going to be THE worst Final Fantasy in history.

Most games are role playing games if they have named characters because you're assuming the role of the character you're playing.
It really makes you think.

I personally feel like the degree to which the experience focuses on dialogue choices pushes The Witcher series at the very least into the middle of the Venn diagram between Action/Adventure and RPG. Sure the choices aren't as branching as, say, Alpha Protocol, but the differences between the choices are still the focus.
It's almost like ARPG is a sub-genre of RPG that exists and encompasses these titles.
Let me guess, Souls and Dragon's Dogma aren't RPGs either?
