Do you prefer RPGs or FPS games? (ttrpg.network)

I'm Just curious about, do you prefer RPGs (Role-Playing Games) or FPS (First-Person Shooters)? Personally, I love getting lost in the story and character development of RPGs, but the fast-paced action of FPS games is hard to resist. What about you? Which one do you enjoy more and why? Let's hear your thoughts!

I like action games, including FPS, with RPG elements.

Borderlands and Diablo - I like that you can just jump in and start blasting without really having to read anything about the setting or characters

Fallout and Cyberpunk 2077 - slower paced and less immediately fun than the previous two, but the action does keep the story interesting

Pure RPGs can be fun as an engineering project - twisting the game's systems to create unbalanced character builds.
