Why is it ok to use CoD for fps, but not Pokemon for turn based rpg?
Turned based ROGs arent the same as Turned Based Strategy RPGs

So... Pubg and borderlands do not count as fps games according to this logic?

In terms of a comparison they fall more into their respective sub genres. PUBG is more a Battle Royale game and Borderlands is a First person shooter/looter style game.

No. PUBG is a Battle Royale and Borderlands is a Looter Shooter.

Final Fantasy Tactics and other games like it (such as Disgaea, Triangle Strategy, Fire Emblem, etc.) are Tactical Strategy JRPGs, or Strategy RPGs (SRPGs) for short, while Baldurs Gate (and other games like it such as Pathfinder, Wasteland, Falliut 1mand 2, etc.) is a CRPG. The two literally have nothing in common besides combat being turn based.

"Computer rpg" litetally make no sense as a genre. It's not even exclusive to PC

COD is an FPS
Borderlands is an FPS looter shooter
PUBG is an FPS Battle Royale
BG3 is a CRPG
Fire Emblem is a Turn Based Strategy Game

It isn't that hard

They are still turn based rpg and the other games are still fps. Yes you can fit more than one genre in a game

Thats what the genre started as, as it was the kind of RPG developed for computers, to differentiate it from the JRPGs developed for console. Now, it means RPGs still in that original style.

Yeah they're definitely both turn based RPGs. But just like PUBG and Borderlands, the gameplay experience is so wildly different, that the extra modifiers are useful.
