This dude was arguing with me about it. He told me it's not an action RPG but a platformer with RPG elements and I'm like okay you can call it either one I guess and that enraged him even more that I was open to accept whatever term you want to call it and insulted me to call it what he wanted. Just kidding but yeah there are people like this.

I guess the Metroidvanias are pretty much Action RPGs. The Classicvanias? Not so much IMO.

move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines. Have sheep troopers squadrons A and B flank the cows. They're using DC-17 hoof blasters.

You guys are too young to remember but there was a point in time on gamefaqs(before the term jRPG was made) where nerds were die hard technical with their terminology. You see, if it wasn't like D&D where you had complete control of your characters, dialogues and destiny then it is not a true RPG. During that time if you were to call Chrono Trigger an RPG these nerds would flame you saying it's not an RPG and then try to mockingly educate you on what an actual RPG is. I mean if you guys try hard enough you can still find these type of nerds here and there.

Like the one we're talking to?

If I didn't say it, someone else would.

We are all nerds but some people take their nerdism to another level. I thought I was an ultra nerd I mean I love video games, anime, Star Wars, I actively post on a video game forums for shits and giggles.... and yet there are people who are still beyond me in nerdism. Makes me feel like I'm pretty normal.
