I've always known that acronym as "computer role-playing game" but it's often also used to mean "classic role-playing game", as opposed to "action role-playing game".

It's more as opposed to ttrpg, table top role playing game.

I meant classic vs. action if you're only talking about computer RPGs, but you're right about computer vs. tabletop.

I was just adding, yeah computer doesn't make as much sense anymore because RPGs are so much more diverse on the computer today.
