Threshold will become famous soon enough
While you make a good point that CRPGs are not really "RPGs", I think we must sadly just accept that this acronym will continue to be used to label any game that involves RPG-like character development (you earn some type of exp and you spend/use to gain levels, skills, power, etc). To do otherwise is to do battle with the inevitable.

While it is disconcerting that the RPG term has been hijacked by games that have little to do with role playing, I still enjoy this type of game. I am disappointed in the fare so far from what looked to be an excellent year.

I am wondering how other people would size up the year so far, and how they predict the rest of the year will unfold.
