Yeah, it's primarily a shooter and I know that. But S.T.A.K.E.R. brings a very sandboxy and free-form playstyle to the market, possibly even turning off many of the hardcore FPS-only twitchboys.
Clear Sky takes it a step further by introducing weapons and equipment upgrades and customization, which is a very RPG-like feature. There are no experience points or levelling, but there are factions whom you can join with and influence, to the point of affecting the wars that spring up between them in one way or the other.
I'd say if there were any stats for the player that it would be fair to categorize it as a full-on CRPG. As it is, I'd say it's an RPG-shooter.
Please not in the groin. Thanks.
