Baldur's Gate is real time, and it's an rpg.

You mean Dark Alliance? Because that's not an RPG. the computer Baldur's Gate isn't realtime, from what I remember.

KOTOR is not realtime. You can pause and choose your course of action at your leisure.

A big problem is that people have conflated the setting of an RPG with the nature of an RPG. So suddenly something is an RPG because it has a fantasy setting (for example), even though that sort of thing is entirely cosmetic with no bearing on the underlying gameplay.

PC Baldur's Gate is realtime it just comes with a pause function for that pseudo turnbased feel.

You could set auto-pauses to make it basically completely turn based, but then it's really boring and stupid.

The turns are just a bit faster. They still use a D&D ruleset, so each round is probably around half a second. And if you don't choose a course of action it defaults you to one.

It's like playing speed Go, except instead of losing if you don't move on time, you're defaulted into doing some other move (perhaps a pass). That doesn't change the nature of the game from a turn based one into a realtime one. The turns are still there, discrete, and easily countable by a human.

Anything which gives you exp, makes you level up,and has an inventory system, is RPG to me.

That's stupid. A bunch of strategy games suddenly become RPGs with that definition.

It also excludes RPGs that aren't level based.

Try running it vanilla. If that doesn't work, get DOSBox.
