Joke or not. I want this. . .

exactly my point. but again when it comes to the specific term of MMORPG. again... it is referring to the role you play. like as in damage, healer or tank.

You are literally the only person in my time on this planet and in MMORPGs, I have seen, that has defined the roleplaying aspect of an MMORPG, as your role as tank,dps,healer, etc. I had to force that to make sense to me.

Final Fantasy, the first one, was an RPG. You didn't have class roles that needed to be adhered to. If I made a party of nothing but fighters would it be a Fighter Playing Game? You take on the role of the heroes of light, not what class they are. XIV, an MMORPG, follows the exact same vein. You take on the role of a so called, "Hero of Light," to save the world or something.

Guild Wars 2 is an MMORPG yet it has no defined roles. So is it not an MMORPG? Literally every MMORPG I've played has put you, the player, in the role of your character, to take part in a predetermined story, or to create your own story. You create a sort of different self and live another life in a different world. Some people take it more seriously than others, but that's what it is.

You're taking the word "Role" and twisting it to fit your own definition. So should we call XIV, a Massively Multiplayer Online, Pick Dps, Healer, or Tank, Playing Game? I do love me some MMOPDHTPG's. Because if we don't differentiate it somehow. Battlefield is an RPG.

Maybe I should ask my girlfriend if she's up for some role play. Then punch her in the face and tell her I picked DPS. (Remember kids, domestic violence is not funny)
