It isn't. But other things are. In particular complex character development. Many so calle RPGs on computer/consol only got a more or less rudimentary RPG structure. (Such as WOW, Diablo and Final Fantasy)
wow, diablo and ff use statblocks and leveling systems as the dominant gameplay mechanic which solidly places them in the rpg genre. no matter how much people harp on about about narrative choices or "playing a role" within a setting, all there really needs to be is separation of the player's skill from the character's via stats and dicerolls.
