There wasn't really anything wrong with what I said, really. I said I wanted an RPG that's similair to Diablo. A game that is an RPG, and is similair. Never actually said Diablo was an RPG (although it IS officially known as an action role-playing game, and why argue with that?).
I do see people going ''Diablo isn't an RPG'' all the freakin' time, anyway. But then again, many of the same people call the Legend of Zelda series RPGs.
But to be honest, if we're talking actual role-playing; as long as you play the role of anything (for an example, a warrior), you're role-playing. It can be that shallow, but of course it can be way deeper as well. So technically, in
every sense, Diablo is an RPG.
Let's get back on topic, though. Discussing how ''legit'' Diablo is as an RPG isn't very much so.
