It doesn't really have dialogue options, or choices, or any sort of interaction. It's more of a shoot and loot. How is it different from Borderlands? Because the view is isometric?
In Borderlands you also pick skills and armor and stuff but i would never consider it an RPG
So how come some people see Diablo as an RPG? I'm trying Diablo immortal and it has a cool character creator but that's all there's to it.
Also isn't my Sorcerer hella cute? Still can't decide which class to play. In Diablo 1 I played Warrior and in Diablo 2 Barbarian, in 3 I played Demon Hunter because he's SUPER hot but maybe I should change to Crusader.
would you consider OP a homosexual?
OP's always a homosexual
I am gay yes. And I'm extremely pissed the game has a character creator but a forced brown ugly portrait.
I spent 1 hour making a super aryan blonde only for him to look like this in the portrait
Hello, Farquaad! Go on, keep spamming.
No. ARPGs in general were born to be braindead no-RP, no-depth versions of RPGs.
No. They were designed to be RPGs taken to the extreme. RPGs are mainly about combat, and they are turn based because they're based on tabletop RPGs (which nobody plays for the npc dialog. Everyone plays for the dungeon crawling, the looting, and/or the adventure), but if you just speed all the calculations up, you get real-time combat. ARPGs are just RPGs taken to their logical conclusion.
This. "Story" and "dialog" is some gay shit. People play games for the killing and looting, anything else is for women and similar creatures.

I don't see any insult that you seem to have intended
Do you believe in god? Why?
>tabletop RPGs (which nobody plays for the NPC dialog. Everyone plays for the dungeon crawling, the looting, and/or the adventure)
Based, this utterly destroys the NotRPGTards and exposes them for the gays they are.
More like a component taken by morons who don't know true role-playing but are addicted to dice rolling instead. CombatBlack folk or murderhobos are the savage, grug, lower-class of RPGs.
Gay thespian detected
>thespian
That's a cope, pure combatgays and pure narrativegays are equally moronic.
Ughhh I can't decide which class to play. I don't wanna repeat the same class. The BArbarian has a SUPER HUNKY BEAUTIFUL aryan man but i already played BArbarian in Diablo 2 and I don't wanna change my Diablo 2 character because the Paladin and Druid are HIDEOUS and I don't like the Necromancer there (and I don't see him as leader of the party)
So I guess that leaves Necromancer and Crusader. I think I could roleplay he's the cute gay incestuous dad of my Demon Hunter from Diablo III. But I can't decide if the Necro or the Crusader. I think I like the Necro better specially because the name is called Immortal and Necromancers are all about immortality.
But ughhh I love the concept of Crusaders and stuff. And I don't know which Class will I play in Diablo IV. Probably Sorcerer.
Which one of those two do you guys think looks more like he could be my Demon Hunter's dad?
It's a hack'n'slash, not an RPG.
Would I consider Deus Ex an RPG? Yes. Would I consider System Shock an RPG? No. Why? Because it doesn't have dialogue trees, so I guess that's my reasoning here I suppose.
Diablo, Borderlands, Dark Souls, Monster Hunter, Genshin Impact are all action RPGs
I consider it an angle grinder simulation.
So what's the logic? Considering you are a brown mutt from a third world shithole you'd think being represented by a poointheloo would at least be close to home. I guess outside the incest schizophrenia you are also, what, a self-hating racist?
does it have stat-based combat? yes : no
every video game that has combat has stat based combat
ok, but I mean stats as in user customizable character statistics
>as in user customizable character statistics
Wtf call of duty is an RPG now
No, and it's in my top 5. Blizzard should get suicide bombed by one of their diversity hires.
It's an Arpg, like Borderlands. Though I guess you could call it action with rpg elements as well.
What is dragon's dogma considered?
Any game where hand to eye coordination matters more than cold, hard math isn't an RPG.
Big homo, you should play point&click games, cyoa and visual novels instead, not stat and character builders. Why? Because you obviously will get the best experience out of this hobby that way. How is that? If you purposefully pick games that are going to make you upset, from genres that are obviously not what you're interested in then you are going to keep making the same threads filled with the same boring outrage that you're addicted to so much. So either pick the right genres for you, where you can fully enjoy the splendor of your degeneracy in your storylines and character representation exactly the way you wish or just drop the pretense and admit you're just a prostitute for attention. Then there will be no reason for this poorly facetious "theatrical" display in either case.
I didn't understand not even half of what you said. But gay rights are human rights, seethe.
When did this mania of calling stat minmaxing games RPGs start? No, its not an RPG because you don't roleplay. Its an SMG - stat maxing game. And all those dogshit Bioware and Ubisoft turds are just action games with SMG elements, not fricking RPGs
No, I would say it's an action game with light RPG elements.
Branching narratives and choices doesn't define RPGs.
It's a real time roguelike. That's it.
Diablo's pedigree is Rogue -> Roguelikes -> Diablo I -> Diablo II, so it's based off of a different style of RPG than the modern WRPG. If Diablo isn't an RPG, neither is Rogue or Wizardry.
I guess so but it's still fun to say "what about diablo" to not an rpg autists and not get any (You)s
>not an rpg autists
I thought those were bots anyway
>In Borderlands you also pick skills and armor and stuff but i would never consider it an RPG
Then you aren't very smart. Borderlands IS an RPG.
FRICK YOU MOM!
>mom told me to clean my room today.
>I called her a b***h. I fricking hate my parents.
