Okay so then we're all going to have our own personal definition of what the "c" in cRPG stands for, including that it just means "computer" which makes the terms "cRPG" and "RPG" synonymous in a video game forum such as this one. That also then means we cannot really have a conversation because some of us talking about apples while others are talking about legos. Oh well. But for the record, it means "classic" (or "old-school") whenever I use it anywhere in this forum.
And since "c" can mean anything we want, there is no objective way to say BG3 should be compared to only certain RPGs and not others. We cannot even say "BG3 is a cRPG and I'm going to compare BG3 to these other cRPGs," because exactly whose "cRPG" definition are we using? "cRPG" can literally mean anything, and one person's definition is not better or more accurate than another's.
