Yes but a story doesn't make an rpg. I BARELY consider FFX an rpg....I only do so because everyone thinks it is. But FFX was pretty much on rails. No world exploration, no side quests, no nothing. Follow this rail, do not deviate. I would classify it as an fantasy adventure game before I classified it as an rpg.
