Comment on Bioware: “Final Fantasy XIII Definitely Not An RPG” by Anonymous:

No, what is and what isn’t a RPG is NOT subjective, unless you are talking about how the meaning of all words themselves are subjective, but then you’re of in the deep trenches where words like “house”, “gun”, “tree” is also subjective, in which case the word subjective looses all meaning and your point is moot in any case.

For a quick example, Quake is not a RPG, nor is Super Mario Bros, and no matter how subjective you claim you are, you will still sound ridicilous if you try tell anyone that Quake is a RPG.
The games simply lack to many game-characteristics associated to the RPG genre, that is a FACT, and not something that is open to subjective debate.
You might try wiggling out of it by claiming that all games where you step into the role of a character are RPG games, but then you just end up with such a meaningless term where you can call Portal a RPG game, and by then you really should question yourself:
Why go to all that trouble when it really doesn’t matter if a game you are enjoying is a rpg or not?

That is the …

    I just hope you are goddamn kidding us. Seriously, the 8-bit era is something I would not rather go back too. Or if you are smoking crack then I may understand what you mean.

    If you like linear story, with you watching what happens then I rather stop playing JRPG’s and read a book, or watch a movie. You have no say on what will happen in a JRPG story, the characters that you supposedly control acts by themselves and “you” have no say on what they will do or on how you want their story to develop. It is not a “role-playing” game, you are a spectator with the job of arranging stats and pushing the “attack button. Congratulation JRPG fans, you are the extreme french …

    Bioware is not trolling, learn to know what “Role Playing Game” actually means in the first place. And no, I am not your fucking teacher to tell you, you cunt. Well if you say that reading a book is an example of rpg then I might as well lose hope to these new age JRPG fans.
