...Is CRPG still a term?

No, really, is it? It means "computer RPG" (I will assume people know the RPG part, or are just going to reference rocket propelled grenades to mock this, in which case, later, my top five RPGS)

Like, I get the other stuff. But everything that is on a console or computer is a computer-based version of the RPG concept.

Like, is "CRPG" just some "we are too cool to indentify for you, foo, but, um, we are not technically tabletop" or something? Or what, is identifying as being a "WRPG" so bad because you don't want to identify with the likes of skyrim or dark souls or something (never mind that dark souls is Japanese)? Are you afraid people will identify you alongside Final Fantasy or something?

Really. "CRPG." May as well call them D&D on a computer. A lot more straight forward than "CRPG." Rant done.

Now for my Top 5 RPGs:
Javelin (formerly the classic RPG-7, but the saint just wins me over now)
M72 LAW
Mk 153 SMAW
Bazooka (at the risk of bringing up that debate of just what an RPG is)
And... the original Panzerfaust, if only for the hilarity factor.

On a side note, in D&D in table top format, I have crafted RPGS before. With the right rolls, it is making an impact-detonation potion with a rocket attached to it. You will want the right custom crafting armor for it. Bring something like an artificer or a forge cleric or something that can help you with it.
