RPG Maker Forums

So, I've been using RPG Maker for months now. I find the program very useful. Let's me make the maps easily, make my own characters and write the dialogue, allows me to do coding within the software to change it. However...my family just doesn't seem to understand. They keep calling it an, "Easy way out," or, "Using a cookie cutter." I try my hardest to explain to them how successful people who use it can be, but they just refuse to listen. They say I NEED to make my own code, use C-Sharp, code from scratch. I'm no good at that stuff, but they think I have to, or I may as well give up. It's not true, right? Will this not be a good program to be a permanent game developer?

Our latest feature is an interview with... me?!

People4_2 (Capelet off and on) added!

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.
