RPG Maker Forums
Hello,
I've been admiring RPG Maker for many years. I decided to put forth some effort, start reading up on material, and move forward, from square one. All along the way, there are constant messages and tags saying how active and helpful the community is, so it seemed like a no brainer to sign up and dive in.
From a couple posts, there were strong recommendations to follow along with a tutorial, building the game identically. Is this the general consensus? I don't have an interest in making commercial games, it's specifically intended for a family member who is (to make it brief) socially withdrawn. She is the reason, growing up, I played fun RPG's like Lunar, Lufia, Zelda's, and countless others, helping 10 yr old me grind out levels. She was always a great mom. Anyways, I'd love to be able to give her a custom gift (or gift mini series
if I can wrap my head around it.) I'd assume, over the next years. I would think (and have read) that this is a labor of love, but still labor in it's own right.
Ha, first day around, and I'm already rambling.
Thanks,
LeviK52

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.
