Is Ocarina of Time an RPG?

Question

Is Ocarina of Time an RPG?

Answer 1

Not really.  In a traditional RPG, you kill monsters to level up.  In Ocarina of Time, you find heart containers and beat bosses to get more life.

Answer 2

Not by the "typical" definition of an RPG.  It is an action/adventure game.  The primary identifier of RPGs are the ability to level up and improve your base stats.

Answer 3

yer it's classed as a rpg by most professional people and just think of it as fable or something then you can see how it is similar.

and just because it isn't stratergy or turn based or any leveling it doesnt mean it isnt a rpg

Answer 4

I'm pretty sure it's in the Zelda series, so not really an RPG like WoW or Everquest. It's more like a soloquest.

Answer 5

ocarina of time is like all the other zelda games a free roaming adventure
