No, but I will soon.
I know, and I don't really disagree I just enjoy a good debate
Sooooo
Q: Does that mean that even though it was probably considered a RPG by the standards of yesteryear it can't be considered as such today?
A: Maybe.
As time went by and more clear cut definitions were made as far as set guidelines for a game to be considered to belong to a certain genre more than another.
Q: Does time and progress ultimately play the role of categorizing past games into genres?
A: Most definitely.
As video games evolve they also carry with them traits of past video games. And if by chance a game comes out that incorporates something innovative enough (like story lines for instance) to be considered to fit a certain genres definitions more so than games past, it then becomes the industry standard. Now what to do with the older games that don't quite stand up to those new standards but still retain core aspects of them? Sub-Genres that's what. And that is how the Action RPG was born. Which I think Gauntlet more than fits under.
Ok I've had my fun. I'm done I promise![]()
