Action RPG Metal Gear

Action Role-Playing video games (also known as RPG or ARPG) are a subgenre of role-playing video games that tend to focus on action and fighting instead of level progressing and planning. Action RPG often incorporates various elements from action games and even from action-adventure games. Big part of this genre are also so-called “Diablo clones” or hack & slash games. The typical action RPG focuses mainly on combat, at the cost of simplifying (or removing) all non-combat attributes and statistics. Additionally, combat always takes place in the real-time system and relies on the player's ability to perform particular actions with optimal speed and accuracy. All top action RPGs tend to focus more on the collection of randomized treasure (or loot) than story progression that is found in other types of role-playing games.

Metal Gear is a series of Japanese video games, created by Hideo Kojima and published by Konami. The franchise successfully combines action-adventure genre with a stealth genre. The series’ first installment, Metal Gear, was released in 1987. In Metal Gear players take control over a special forces operative, named Solid Snake, who needs to find the titular “Metal Gear”, a bipedal walking tank. Since 1987 several sequels for multiple consoles have been released. These sequels expand the original game's plot by adding new characters (both opposing and supporting Snake), while there have also been a few prequels exploring the origins of many characters. The franchise has also been adapted into other media (e.g. comics and novels). The most notable traits of Metal Gear franchise are its intricate storylines, fourth wall humor, and exploration of many philosophical and political themes, with multiple references to Hollywood movies as an extra flavor. Metal Gear was immensely successful, winning many awards and selling over 42 million copies worldwide. This game is a true classic. Is Metal Gear the mother of all stealth games?
