This game can easily be put in RPG category due to dialogue choices, and the progression system with various ways to build your character. It's an action adventure rpg like so many other games.

It's not entirely an RPG. But more so than not.

Not on multiple console generations in addition to pc, but you're still pretty much correct.other games have achieved more with much less hype (and pre-orders money) though
