Action RPG (Action Role-Playing Game), also known as ARPG, refers to RPGs (role-playing games) that use direct, real-time, reflex-oriented, action combat systems, instead of the more abstract turn-based or menu-based battle systems.
When characters make conversation during normal gameplay, rather than a dialog-focused scene.
A real-time battle system used in Namco Bandai's Tales franchise.
Games that allow characters to be switched with the press of a button. This concept's definition does not include player switching in team sports games.
Combat that takes place in real time, but that can be paused to give commands to certain characters.
Video game combat in which combat actions are performed in real-time, rather than through a turn-based structure.
Romance in video games can either be interactive, in which the player attempts to woo another character, or an unchangeable part of the story of a given game.
Long-running franchises often end up in the hands of different studios over the years, but a direct sequel by an entirely different company is somewhat rarer.
A game that takes gameplay mechanics, characters, or story elements from an existing series in a separate and different direction, sometimes changing genres along the way.
