CRPG apparently translates to "Computer RPG"
I'm still not sure what it means
It’s games like the original baldur’s gate and stuff. I think a clear defining thing is that you have a zoomed out perspective and you click where to move
Kings quest didn't have character progression or choices to be made (at least in the ones I played). That's pretty core to qualify as an rpg
Some of the KQ games had choices, but no character progression (one of the last ones if I recall, but it sucked). The QFG games had character progression and more choices than most RPGs.
