I'm assuming by country of origin you're referring to the developer, so I based my edits on that.
Publisher too, there's plenty of examples in front of you. Not even expecting hyperlinks or Codex links

Done, those got added.

You are correct, I made an error. I copy and pasted an earlier entry to use it as a template and missed that line when I was making the changes.

To be honest I doubt that Yakuza games, as fun as they all are, qualify for the RPG list except for Yakuza: Like a Dragon.
It's hard to tell what's allowed in anyways considering some of the games on the top RPGs lists I would consider even less of RPGs than even Yakuza. My rule for if I even submit as an entry is if subjectively I think it is more RPG than any other genre (even if its 51/49 split), then I'll add it in. It was pretty hard to curate especially for the Russian games that have as big of a focus on TBS/RTS as they do RPG. On top of that, getting MobyGames database on "RPG" still makes me have to cut like 50% of games listed. It's fucked.

Side note: The existing entry for QFG1 EGA could use the additional info that the game was originally released as Hero's Quest: So You Want to Be a Hero.
Release dates are taken from the Sierra Chest.

I beg of you:
-If you add new titles, make a new post.
-Try to follow the formatting to a T.
-Do not post games that are not on PC.
I don't mean to sound like a douche, because I am grateful for every entry added. It just makes my life easier, and it also means that I won't miss new entries.
EDIT: I only have Uncreation's list of games left to add. Hopefully, I get it done by the end of the day.

I've used them to double check some info, but can tell you that there are games on this list that you can't find at all on PCGamingwiki, and that's not even including links to the prestigious
Codex content/threads
Some of these Russian games I add in are under the "RTS" or "Strategy" genre, but I always keep in ones that I consider to be at least 50%+ cRPG elements (in fact, these are usually much more of a cRPG than most of the newer "RPGs" on the list). I always cut ones that are 4x or lacking greatly in RPG elements. As always, you're the curator Abu Antar but just want to let you know to look them over incase there's something you don't think belongs:
