I don't think you understand what pseudo means .... 

Pseudo means being not genuine, a sham. The problem with saying Zelda is a "pseudo rpg" is that even if it's similar that's not what it's setting out to accomplish. It isn't a "pseudo" rpg because it's not a sham, it's just a genre that happens to host some games similar to RPGs. I'm really not being silly, in fact I would have dropped this a long time ago had you not kept pushing the definition of "pseudo". Calling, I don't know, Skyrim a pseudo RPG, is a pretty good way of using the word. Zelda isn't even putting itself to those standards, so it doesn't make sense. 

You're just injecting some nonsense into what you think I meant, Kathy.

Dude, look, this is really a silly thing to fight about, so I'll admit I should have stopped it earlier before it continued. But making fun of people for correcting you by using the literal definition of a word ... that's not "nonsense", you're just not admitting you're wrong. It's especially funny when you tell people to look up a word, and then they use that definition against you because you just don't know what the word actually means.

But I really don't care either way. You just aren't using a word right, but your opinion is fine to have.
