    not really, there are many different types of RPG like action oriented like Diablo or much more detailed and longer like Morrowind where you can almost do whatever you want in the world.

    Basically you control one or more characters, walk around and try to accomplish quests given by NPC in the game. When you&#39;ve finished quests you get some kind of experience and you can advance your character in different skills. Though thats different in every game

    if you want to try out some look for Morrowind or Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic though i havent played that yet, but its supposed to be great

    You Better Keep In Mind That I Can Read Between The Lines


    Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to there level and beat you with experience!!

    And you can&#39;t go wrong with the final fantasy series either.
    They have a cool battle system and other stuff.I&#39;m not sure how different it is from other rpg&#39;s &#39;cause i only played FF. But the graphics are outstanding...the best graphics I&#39;ve ever seen on PS2 anyway.
    And the storyline is...euhm....quite good.

    Diablo is an RPG only because you level up and get stat points.

    A true role-playing game is more than just accumulating stats and items. It&#39;s not about watching your "experience" meter grow until you gain a level. Real role-playing allows you to genuinely step into another world, live out another life, create an alternate personality, make decisions with that character, and live out the consequences of your choices.
    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
