Diablo is RPG, same as Fallout and BG games.
It's an action title that was marketed as an RPG to double the buying public for the title. It has everything in common with other action titles, and next to nothing in common with RPGs, includling either the BG or Fallout series. If you wish to discuss those points of commonality among 'em and try to make a case for the RPG genre, though, that's fine with me.
I'm surprised on a board like this the RPG titles included some that were so recent (KotoR), and missed some of the most popular in the genre that were older (Ultima VII, Ultima IV, Darklands, Betrayal at Krondor, Magic Candle I, Might & Magic III, etc). Still, for sheer writing and several other factors, I gave it to PS:T. It's in my top 5.
