This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What elements that you consider core to the genre is it missing?

Generally, RPGs involve character progression through stats, and RDR really doesn't have that. It's an action adventure game with an emphasis on storytelling.

For an Action RPG, decision making, conversation options, and of course a skill trees are necessary. Basically you need to be able to shape your character to "play a role".
