Actually people need to look past perspectives. For some reason everyone assumes all RPGs are isometric. What about the elder scrolls series? There are also countless other isometric games which aren't RPGs.

Thats probably why so many people don't see Deus Ex as an RPG rather than just a shooter. The game happens to be in first person and just happens to include a gun. However, change the view to isometric and you've got Fallout.

Genres are a funny thing.....they have no real clear cut definitions. For the preview I would agree this sounds more like an action/adventure.
