Origin of RPG Mechanics [What RPG did it first?]
219Origin of RPG Mechanics [What RPG did it first?]
What makes an RPG? Is it damage numbers? Is it a focus on story and dialogue? Is it the mechanics that allow you to make your characters stronger? or is it a combination of many elements? One thingโs for sure, I am NOT going to open that can of worms today, because I can guarantee that there will be a million and one different opinions on the matter.
Instead, this video is going to look at many of the popular mechanics found within the RPG / JRPG genre, and then take a trip back into time to find the mechanics origin. What was the game, or the RPG that did it first? These are the games that we can give a big shout out to, for helping make the genre, what is it today.
๐ฌ Also, I'd love to know what thought about the video, and if I missed out on any interesting mechanics, so let me know in the comments below.
