I don't care if it's RPG or not... (Score 1)

The most important thing is that it's FUN. Does it matter if Final Fantasy VII is just an interactive novel with stats and not really RPG? Does it matter if Diablo is just a hack-and-slash fest with stats and not really an RPG? I don't really care, neither does most gamers. I just know that I've had way more FUN with Final Fantasy VII and Diablo than some supposedly "open-ended, non-linear" RPGs like Daggerfall or Morrowind, which is just BOOOORING. I don't care.
