I don't know if I like the idea that some programmers had access to the tool before launch.
Uh ... release a new RPG Maker without plugins, everyone complains because it'll be 6 months before we have any decent plugins for it so it's not worth migrating to.

Give some programmers early access so they can make plugins, so they're there when the new RPG Maker is released, and people complain about that.

Do you want early plugins or do you want to have to wait for them? You can't have it both ways.

I had early access to MV. That's why it was released with a converter. There were heaps of plugins available on MV release. Would you rather not have that?

@Shaz It's just a lose-lose situation. Can't please everyone, just got to pick a path and walk it till the end. I think a lot of people appreciated those plug-ins that released with MV, though.

Yeah, I won't complain... rather have some things there at launch than to have nothing.
Sounds more like jealousy to me..
Can we not be jelly please?
No one needs to be jelly.
I'm thankful folks get early access to make anything..

Damn this s*** has exploded and we still don't have everything in the can yet. Though on a separate note, I could never get why they used a paintbrush when Ace and everything else used a bucket icon, and keep in mind that area fill is technically supposed to be a f***ing bucket icon. I could never get that design choice, and I would probably despise the jerk who thought it was a good idea to break with such an obvious tradition in the first place.

So even if we have to upgrade more than just our projects, at least that's one more design gaffe that never should've been a thought in the first place.

@BreakerZero : If that happens due to an internet error, you can just report the accidental double post and we can merge it (if desired) or delete it. I'll delete the duplicate for you, though if you want it back report it and tell us to merge it instead.

Thanks again, @bgillisp. Also, for anyone else who had difficulties there was a momentary issue with the forums where it seems that the entire system crashed under the load of those of us frantically discussing the MZ announcement. Or in more technical terms, our discussion on this has basically doxxed the system for what seems like several minutes of agony.

I don't really want to get involved in the discussion here but:
Yanfly working for Degica and Kadokawa confirmed.
He's not. This kind of rumor has been bothering him and some kept trying to contact him to see if it's true. So I'm just here to dispel the rumor.

Maybe it's "Zenith", to indicate this is the highest point MV's format can possibly go (definitely indicated by how much RTP it apparently has)? The name's not important, but it's fun to think about.

We really are a cage of monkeys rattling the bars right now lol

I feel bad for him.
He's trying to get away from all the stress.. and it's like folks are trying to pull him back in..

I am with archeia heres and let yanfly alone he did enough for us wait more than we merit and let him take his retirement in peace

I doubt he will come back and if he does I hope no one go bother him with selfish request.

You sure someone didn't just hit the go outside and do something else button?
I've been doing something else - for 10 whole minutes! Now I want to forum again, and it wasn't there :(

I just hope this new RPG Maker doesn't have the GUI lag issues that plagued MV for a while. That was annoying.

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
Can someone recommend some fun story-heavy RPGs to me? Coming up with good gameplay is a nightmare! I was thinking of making some gameplay platforming-based, but that doesn't work well in RPG form*. I also was thinking of removing battles, but that would be too much like OneShot. I don't even know how to make good puzzles!
one bad plugin combo later and one of my followers is moonwalking off the screen on his own... I didn't even more yet on the new map lol.
time for a new avatar :)
