CRPGs, or computer role-playing games, are a genre of video games where players assume the roles of characters in a fictional world. Players typically create or customize their characters, making choices that affect the game's story and outcomes. These games often feature complex narratives, character development, and strategic combat systems. In CRPGs, players explore vast environments, complete quests, and interact with non-player characters (NPCs). Many CRPGs incorporate elements like turn-based combat or real-time action, allowing for various gameplay styles. Popular examples include The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and Final Fantasy series, which have garnered large fanbases over the years.
