The Witcher 3 is absolutely not an RPG. It's also a pretty boring game, although well made.

Mumpy Puffinz posted:It isn't. You are Geralt. You have to do what Geradt will do You play the role of Geralt. You take on the role of that character and make decisions. The whole theme of the Witcher series is grey areas of morality. By your definition, Final Fantasy 1 and the MMOs are the real RPGs, and every Final Fantasy with defined characters fitting a narrative is not an RPG. That's great if you're willing a loving dissertation on the rhetorical theory of genre names, but they are simple classifications used for a taxonomy. You might as well tell David Duke he's not literally white.

And yet it was marketed as an RPG, it’s usually listed as an RPG, and by-and-large the gaming community considers it to be an RPG. Now you may just say that they’ve all got it wrong, but that’s a pretty retarded argument.

If a game is marketed as an RPG, usually listed as an RPG, and by-and-large the gaming community considers it to be an RPG, one might say that not considering that game to be an RPG is a... unpopular video game opinion

2house2fly posted:The game is extremely clunky; it's popular because of the cutscenes. The Bloody Baron quest, which it sounds like you're about to hit, is the highlight of the game by far I have a friend who swears by the combat and says it tops stuff like monster hunter, dragon's dogma and dark souls.

I’m having trouble with Monster Hunter. I don’t know what I’m missing but something about the combat just isn’t clicking for me.

There's like 14 weapons you can try with very different gameplay styles, I settled on the insect glaive because you can stay in the air doing air combos the entire time.

Witcher 3 is an RPG the same vein Mass Effect and Dragon Age was. Fallout 4 is an RPG the same vein Oblivion and Morrowind was.

KrunkMcGrunk posted:I had to give up on Prey. The game is so slow and boring. I'm like 12 hours in and I think I've seen like four or five different enemies? And for 90% of them, combat is the same thing: stun with gloo gun, whack with wrench. Most of the game is spent sneaking around opening desk drawers and fishing out junk. The environments are kinda samey too, and the zero-g parts are suuuuuuper slow. were you using shift to boost forward? your speed is capped at ridiculously low levels if you're using the altitude jets only

Sorry to go negative, but I just started playing that Shantae half genie ultimate game, and Shantae has an insanely bad idle animation. (The game is pretty fun so far though).

You play the role of the Doom Marine and you make choices about which weapon to use, which affects the story of which weapon the demons were killed by

game classifications don't matter they're either good and bad, most bad and some I assume are good games.

RPG JRPG Western RPG CRPG Action Action RPG Adventure RPG Action-Adventure Point-and-click Adventure This poo poo is endless and ridiculous but some of those have more meaning than others, and I wonder if the reason there's confusion is because back in the NES days there was much less stratification, and maybe people in their 30's or higher have a more clear definition of these terms because of they were basically invented out of necessity by the games journalism industry when your mainstream options for that were pretty much Nintendo Power, Gamepro, and EGM. There was a time when Metroid, Zelda 2, and Faxanadu were considered to have similar combat and progression with differences, but essentially they were sidescrollers with locks on your progression based on finishing objectives that weren't linearly placed. You can't pidgeonhole so much anymore because the core mechanics that used to be the means of categorizing a game by genre got mixed together in their own games. The only genre in that list that still really functions is point-and-click adventure because the control mechanic is specified in the title.
