theyre ARPGs. they're more action games than rpgs in sense of roleplay and gameplay, tbh

Ok.

By that logic JRPGs and CRPGs aren't RPGs either.

I knew you'd twist words like this :)
But you are partially right: JRPGs arent't RPG in strict sense of the word because reasons stated above. CRPGS, OTOH, are the most close thing to "true" RPG that is - possible? achievable? idk the right word - on PCs. Therefore, "C"s are RPGs, but "J"s and "A"s are not. Clear enough?

Nope. Who's twisting words again? :D ARPGs are RPGs. Case in point, I don't buy the RPG codex definition , sorry bud, A+ for effort though

Cool dude, so the rest of the world can rightfully call them RPGs and the sanctimonious pricks over at rpg codex can continue splitting hairs all they want, feel better? ^_-

ZiggyD has posted a great analysis of what has been revealed of FO4's character system:

My one, big concern is the paucity of initial SPECIAL points, reportedly a mere 21 points to spread among your seven SPECIALS. Considering that 5 points is considered "average," this represents a significant handicap to a beginning character. Sure, it could represent "freezer burn" resulting from such an unusually long hypersleep, but I feel it's more a clumsy attempt at long-term scaling. After all, there is NO level cap in FO4, and you can eventually max out your SPECIALs. Still, 28 or even 35 points would feel better.

As things stand, what this means is that, starting out, to have even a couple of stats at a mere 5, the rest of your stats are going to suck massively, to the point of handicap. To have three of them at 5, the other four will have six points left to place among them. To me, that just feels wrong, and I thing one mod I will be waiting to see is one which provides for a more generous staring allotment of stat points.

Still, a great video, and typical of Zig's analyses. Well worth a watch. =^[.]^=

You can call them whatever you want, there is still no RP in them.

Myself and the rest of the world ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You can call them wtv you want.

same here. no way i pay for optional expansions in advance if there is a entrance fee to the main game.

Firefox was behaving really weird with this video,kept coming back here after a bit like my back space button was pressed,went into Chrome and it was fine.

By the way all this https://youtu.be/hvC9TycPpZ4?t=531 has me intrigued reminds me of POEs hideout but more functional.
