In a sense I wonder how many games out there that go using the viewpoint of the villain aka the villain as the main character. Sure villains get an origin story, but what are their real motives? Take a game such as megaman where Dr. Wily is the villain, but in an episode of Game Theory it goes deeper in what causes Wily's motivation of committing the crimes he enacts on which the show states that Megaman's creator is the main cause of everything.
I got the idea of this thread when I read a manga called " Tate No Yuusha No Nariagari". It begins with four people summoned as heroes and each represents a weapon, but the fourth hero is a shield. Later on in the story he is framed for a heinous crime and he becomes bitter along with unable to trust anyone. The shield hero is dubbed a villain, but along the way he becomes stronger than the other 3 heroes who were laughably weak in comparison. Which begs a big question in this: If villains became villains because of the hero then should the game make the villain the main character?
It would be interesting to experience a different viewpoint on the side instead of always focusing on the hero when it comes to the storyline of the game since both hero and villain are important to the main plot.

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.
