More specifically, an ARPG. There has always been debate over whether the Zelda games are RPGs or not. Personally, I've never thought of them as RPGs, but this one in specific contains a lot more in terms of RPG-esque aspects (something I had really hoped for), so there can definitely be a case made for it as being an RPG. I'm still not sure, though, because even though it gains a few RPG elements, it fails to retain others from previous games. It also still plays more like an action game than anything.
Have you ever thought of the series as RPG? Do you think that the new one can be considered one?
bet: lost
