Yeah it does :3

@Kylie

Of course it's an RPG. With Zelda-ish elements though.

 

No leveling.  No RPG.  Action-adventure.

 

Actually, on further reflection, Soriku is right.

The essence of role-playing is having control over the decisions your character makes. That can include the way your character grows his skills, but I'd argue that having dynamic NPCs which react to your decisions and actions is actually more important to role-playing than allocating skill points. I think this game might actually be more of an RPG than any previous Final Fantasy game.

O RLY?!11!?

Well in that case, Chaos Legion DMC4, God of War 3, Dynasty Warirors and many others are "essence" JRPGS? Mmm, i get it now, then that must mean Folklore a true JRPG then, awesome im save this and discuss it with certain VG members later.

 

I don't deny the fact they have some elements like in RPGs...but they're not RPGs.

Besides, it's not just the stat system that makes an RPG an RPG IMO.

That doesn't make sense... so if a game like FF:TCB has RPG like elements yet its not, its an RPG But games like god of war 3 and DMC4 that also have this same exact status and HP/MP/SL style but its no among an "essence" rpg?

Im sorry riku, but im kinda feelin summmmm..... Hypocrisy here. <_<
