I am, and you’re wrong.
Developers can say anything they want. Genre is defined exclusively by players and how they experience the end result. Players label games.
If a developer makes Doom and calls it a JRPG, they’re wrong regardless of what their design goals were.
It’s just a bad jrpg
Developers are the ones marketing it
Marketing has literally zero impact on what genre a game is.
Literally nothing but the gameplay can ever, under any circumstance, contribute to the discussion of what genre a game is.
You’ve never read the description on steam or seen an ad for a game that tells you what kind of game it is?
Of course I have. They just don’t have any bearing in any context on what actual genre it is.
Well good luck with your future pitches when you open up by saying the public is going to decide your genre
