Memoirs label had best tit-size ratio. I'm in the opinion there can be too big to the waist & hip/ass ratio. Tits the size of a 60 lb woman each is too much.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Bought the Yakuza collection. I don't know anything about the series, except remembering this gif, which seems appropriate for this thread.

Sometimes I have to wonder if the term "RPG" really means anything anymore. Here's GOG. Some of the games in the image don't even look like rpgs. They're just poorly made porn games

Huniepop isn't even an rpg!

This isn't just a problem on GOG, or in gaming. It's everywhere in online retail. Search and categorization are universally garbage (and keep getting worse).

In the case of gaming, you have three points of "failure".
  • Devs assign any available category/tag that might apply to their games, so we end up with a prisoner's dilemma where everyone's game gets buried in a meaningless pile anyway.
  • Customers understand categories/tags differently: what one person calls an RPG might not agree with what someone else does, so categories are often applied as broadly as possible.
  • Online retailers know making things easy to find is key, but most of them use the cheapest solution that can be delivered in the quickest time and then don't tinker with it, or use an out-of-the-box solution that doesn't account for the peculiarities of their industry. Even when a company has a good search engine/categorization model, idiot business leaders impose "business rules" over the output that often completely undermine everything
