Topic	How far does your definition of RPG go?
VerisimiIitude 02/02/21 2:51:23 PM #45:	Coloradough posted... How is dark souls an RPG? I haven't played it. Isn't it just hard Zelda? It has 'character sheets', some dice roll mechanics (I think... anyone feel free to correct me on this), stat based progression systems with some player agency... I personally would've considered it one. It is kind of interesting how the term 'RPG' seems to have evolved over time. A lot of games across many genres have adopted elements and mechanics that at one time you'd only attribute to RPGs like Dragon Quest or Baldur's Gate. --- Onyx87 Feel the love... <cite>VerisimiIitude posted [p:950201638] in How far do...
