Indeed. I'm missing a lot of the R in this supposed RPG. And no quality control could make up for that.

Yeah, R is definitely dying in this supposed RPG games.

I remember playing Gothic for the first time around 2001/2 and thinking "this is superb, but a bit light on skills and attributes - it would be great if they added more D&D or GURPS alike stuff in it" - never happened. Then Morrowind came along (I wasn't fan of Daggerfall, Might&Magic was my thing back in 90s) and I thought "really nice attributees and skills, now if only there was as good of a story and world building like in Gothic, Fallout 1/2 or Planescape" - never happened.

Fast forward 15 years and AAA devs have practically killed the genre - we either have action-adventures with some RPG skills sprinkled in or FPS/TPS-RPG hybrids.

I mean, FFS, some people have balls (or just lack knowledge, not sure what it is) to call Horizon an RPG.

Play some Divinity 2 and STFU please....pardon the french. And they call Horizon an Action-RPG, which it is. Exactly like The Witcher 3.
