Zelda has always been action adventure to me. It wasn't until gamefaqs did I start see people calling it an RPG.

CT I give you. Zelda has been action rpg since forever. Final fantasy 11-16 are action rpg. The rest cant be debated.

FF 12 and 13 are standard ATB, and 15 is just standard ATB pretending that it's not.

Stats and leveling arent actually part of what defines a role-playing game.

Every Zelda is a rpg. You use spells and are actively in combat. Action rpg.

Google says Zelda is a rpg. Cant argue opinions with facts here. Breath of the wild and the terrible TOTK are the most action rpg a Zelda game has been.

It is not, no. All actions are taken out of a menu and happen only once your ATB gauge happens. XV at least hides it to make it not seem like it's a thing, but holding the attack button is an easy way to break that illusion.

It didn't really have stats and leveling though. It was just smoke and mirrors. The bosses give so much XP it invalidated almost all other sources and you were forced to upgrade things in round robin.

Zelda are just openworld sandbox games

Fallout are just shooters or uhh turn-based type gameplay w/ guns

Kingdom hearts is an action masher

Because it gives people an idea of what to expect.
