Action RPG (Action Role-Playing Game), also known as ARPG, refers to RPGs (role-playing games) that use direct, real-time, reflex-oriented, action combat systems, instead of the more abstract turn-based or menu-based battle systems.
Also called Diablo-esque or Dungeon Crawler ARPGs, this sub-genre was very popular in the 2000s and 2010s and spawned many successful franchises. Usually played from an isometric perspective focused on dungeon exploration, killing hordes of enemies, complex loot systems and creating different character builds.
Achievements are extra challenges added into video games that sometimes carry a point value or unlock bonus material, and are sometimes solely for bragging rights.

Body armor in games acts as additional protection. In most cases, when a player takes damage that would completely affect their health, their body armor reduces the damage taken or takes the damage instead.
"Hand to hand. It is the basis of all combat." -Gray Fox
