RPG Maker Forums
While looking into Vlue's Advanced Recipe Crafting script, specifically the crafting categories, a stray memory happened to pop into place. Sometime just after the Y2K rollover, while looking around the 'net for game-making tutorials, I came across a gamedev.net article which listed some things to be usable in a potential game.
The article featured an assortment of craftsmen, merchants, and resources that might be found in a fantasy/medieval-inspired game. Albeit, most games even in RPG Maker might not ever become so complex as to use most or all of these, but I submit the link for those so inclined -- if even only so that a wider variety of "craftables" can be added to a game, if fitting thematically.
I found the old article by looking back into GameDev's archives:

It is no less interesting a read, as it was the day I first found it. And further, just up in the parent subforum, are a few other articles which may also be of interest:

Hope this helps with your crafting-related creativity. Feel free to add further thoughts here. (I had at one point re-typed and re-formatted that list, adding in a few more ideas of mine, in an OpenOffice document and exported a PDF; but, I'll be danged if I cannot find the crazy thing....)

Tonbi's MZ material factory
That is ok. I know the rest of the Actor 3 Set...
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.
