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?

you have it backwards, crpg is an older term than wrpg. it was used to describe stuff like might and magic and ultima to differentiate it from games like dq and ff that were thought of as console style rpgs.
