@Racketboy, what exactly do you mean by RPG elements? Do you mean stat building, gaining XP levels to earn new moves/skills, or massive storylines?
I think I have a few games that would fall under any of those descriptions.

I'd say Odin Sphere is a brawler with RPG elements. Mario Golf on the GBA has RPG elements; you gain levels and stat points to customize your golfer.

Oh, what about Pangya, the Korean Golf MMO? Or Robotrek, where you build a robot?

What about Action RPGs?
I know that sounds simple but wouldn't all of those fit on this list?

Well, I wouldn't list ones that fit under a typical RPG subcategory like Action RPG, Sim RPG, or Strategy RPG.SpaceBooger wrote:What about Action RPGs?

Not so concerned about storylines -- mostly leveling up, building moves/skills, etcRXRob wrote:@Racketboy, what exactly do you mean by RPG elements? Do you mean stat building, gaining XP levels to earn new moves/skills, or massive storylines?

Yeah I remember Robotrek being very straight up RPG-ish, great game too.

I haven't gotten around to playing it beyond a few minutes of trying to build a robot, I just remember having to set up stats.Ryvius wrote:Yeah I remember Robotrek being very straight up RPG-ish, great game too.
