Well, you play the role as somebody and it is a game. That's enough to make think of it as an RPG.

He has a point.DSCUBER9000 said:
i voted for this a while ago, and forgot what i voted for, but it's not really an rpg, more of a sandbox game with some rpg elements.
There is a lot of confusion as to what an RPG is. It's not if you only play a role. You play a role in an adventure game, but it's not called an RPG. An RPG is when you not only play a role, but there is also character development, like leveling up.

According to Gamespot Animal crossing is an RPG.
I'd say it's more of a sandbox, but that doesn't have its own genre...yet.

I don't think so.For me, an RPG is an adventure game, one where you journey to far away lands, with a goal.You venture with other people and level up.In Animal Crossing, you hardly have any of that.You do travel places sort of...but you don't really have a goal, except to live a good life and pay off your debts.But there's no levelling up or adventure.

I don't think that Animal Crossing is an RPG because there is no leveling-up.
