| Soriku said: The term "role playing" is stupid since you're playing a role in every game but it's a well known term so I don't really care what RPGs are classified as so as long as they can be easily recognized just by saying "RPG." I'd really like to know what the person's thoughts who made up the name thinks about this though. |
I don't think any single person came up with the description. It is more of one person describing it as such, then another doing the same, then another, and another until it becomes mainstream. I'm not arguing the title though. I'm arguing that all of these games that are classified under this title are similar to eachother enough to be classified as a unified genre and different enough from other genres to not be classified as such.
