A better game for the debate is mainline series Monster Hunter. The gamess are not considered RPGs in the east and basucally only got the action-rpg label stuck to them inteh west because the west doesn't want to adopt "Hunting Action Game" genre label Japan uses.

So it's a genre that only it and two other games fit into or is there a slew of games like this in Japan? Is RDR2 a hunting action game?
