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

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.Isn't this a 2009 game? I'm super sure, I've played it back in the day.

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.I need to step up my game with obscure russian jank if you're gonna boost Japan's numbersThere's no Y entries yet, but Y?
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.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.
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.Quest for Glory: So You Want to Be a Hero (VGA Remake)
Released: July 1, 1992 (VGA Floppy), April 1994 (VGA CD)
