Comment on What would a 3rd person shooter equivalent be to "Boomer Shooters"
Kolanaki@pawb.social 8 hours agoHonestly, I don’t really think the original FF7 (or any FF for that matter) is much of an RPG in the first place. The only thing it actually shares in common with the genre is turn based battles and leveling up to get stronger. They’re closer to a visual novel than a true role-playing game.
But that’s what they are called by their developers.

And you call me arbitrary and weird way of thinking.

With your logic Breath of the Wild is a Jump’n Run, because you can jump and run in the game??

Lemme guess: You consider it to be an RPG?
