Well, the reason I'm asking is simple because: I have attempted to complete several games now, only to find I've bit off more then I can chew.
You can look at Purgatory and Dungeon Maniac: Reborn from me.
It seems like I like to try to do features, or even other stuff I CAN'T do on my own right now. I understand it takes a certain talent for someone to be able to do everything on their own.
My question is: What should a first game consist of? Should I only mess around with one feature? Should I do things that teach me skills (Scripting, graphics, etc etc). I end up wanting to quit not even in the middle. The dungeon crawler I'm working on now I want to quite on. However not because I can't do the things I want to do. I can actually do what I have planned, but the problem is that it would be an extreme amount of work. Especially as I plan on making a lot of dungeons/floors. (at least 50 dungeons). First I thought about releasing only a few of them then just releasing a couple more at a time. But I think in this case it could be a bit weird.
So... What should a first game be? I mean honestly, just the normal RTP, maybe some custom graphics, or from resources I've bought/free for Plus , members? Then just make a story and go with that?
What was your first game, and what did you learn from it?

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.
