Comment on Every RPG subgenre acronym, decoded

Terms can definitely be confusing. Diablo is definitely a hack-n’-slash, but it’s very different from the likes of Golden Axe and God of War.

Where Warframe would fit in this? It’s kinda a MMO (but not a MMO) with a lot of stat based progression.

ARPG + MORPG hybrid with looter shooter characteristics.
It doesn’t really fit anywhere cleanly, though.
