They said CRPG 8 times before saying what it meant, "Cinematic Role-Playing Game" for anyone else confused. I don't know why they had to give flashy games their own sub-genre but whatever.
Except that's never been the meaning of CRPG. For 30 years it's meant "Computer Role Playing Game" and occasionally "Classic Role Playing Game" it has never ever meant Cinematic.
I've never heard the term CRPG in any context until this thread lol
Only rpg, arpg, jrpg, and jpeg...wait
Me neither lol. It probably made a lot more sense 30 years ago when they were more novel and TTRPGs were still king.
Regardless, Bioware beat them to whatever they mean by it.
Obviously, it was murdered and reanimated as a foul abomination, but they still actually defined the genre dammit, Dragon Age perfected this shit fifteen years ago and I'll fight anyone who disagrees and is preferably smaller than me.
Advanced clickbait, so you keep reading and spend more time on their page. Thanks for saving me a click though
