Zelda is not actually a rpg, more like action-adventure, but...
It's > all. Just because it is Zelda.

Heh, I've read the arguments and do not wish to repeat it here. It's as bad as nVidia vs ATI, Intel vs AMD, (flame wars)...

What arguments?

In a Zelda GAME, you're PLAYING the ROLE of Link...

By your logic, 99% of all video games are RPGs.

Zelda is indeed fun, but it's not a RPG. You can't makes choices that will affect the game in any Zelda.

Zelda is fun for people that like puzzles. I like puzzles. I also like flowers. But that doesn't make me hate RPGs. Go RPGs! Cakes and puppies, oh my.

I can't figure out what you mean by that.

I personally found FFCC RoF more fun than Zelda. You get more recommendations if not everybody thinks Zelda > All, so I'll throw in a new game =P.

Glad you got the joke!
I would hesitate calling grinding games "RPGs" just because you gain experience points in them. But I am an elitist and hopelessly try to compare console RPGs to their tabletop (or western) cousins!

Nubia · Aug 30, 2007

In Zelda, you can't makes choices that will affect the game(or the ending). It's a action game, and it's never gonna be a RPG.

You've apparently never played either of the Oracle games.

I also prefer Pokemon.

Zelda is indeed an RPG. RPG has become a pretty vague genre description though. Zelda would be an action/puzzle solving/rpg whereas a game such as final fantasy 7 is a turn based RPG.

And in final fantasy, or Dragon Quest, you can? I mean, apart from raising a golden chocobo...

I think basically RPGs are a genre that is story-oriented and based on character development (gameplay and story).

Zelda isn't one, 'cause link is a mute.

Link is obviously not mute, as demonstrated by this video.

That does NOT count.

That is an abomination of all that is Zelda.
