Rapha

NOXXNOXX Dude, if have STATS like HP, STR, DEX, elements, weaknesses and etc IS an RPG. All of the Souls are inserted in the Action RPG genre, where EVEN defined a specific one called "Souls-like".

RPGs aren't just turn based, the thing only started like that

Also, Pokemon is RPG too.

Why everyone forget about Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen?

I see so much potential in that game, where the combat gameplay shines abundantly and hamonically. Although the narrative and thr depth of the story/lore of Gransys isn't that impressive, the moments i had were of absolute fun, and that game rendered me 3K if not more hours since the released version of the PS3 where i first played. Itsuno's work just needed more refinement, more focus on NPC conversations, interactions and random events intertwining within the story before launching DD2, imho

Honorable mentions i saw here, although i can't play Clair Obscur nor Baldur's Gate 3 because i own a PS4, not a PS5. Among the Souls, i played Demon's Souls, Dark Souls Remastered, Bloodborne and Elden Ring, gotta say i love those last 2. Absolute mindblowing <3
