RPG Maker Forums

Hi everyone,

Nice to meet you all!

So I wanted to make an RPG. For like... forever. Since I played Dragon Warrior on my NES when it came out. Yes, forever. And I found myself here.

Backstory: I've been a game developer since 1994, back when I got to work on SNES and Genesis games. It's been a long road since then. I transitioned from 2D to 3D when the Playstation came out, worked up through other consoles, then on to PC. I started out as an artist, then I made my way into also doing music and sound effects, and eventually (18 years ago) started programming. After all this time, I now find myself really, really missing the fun of working on 2D games, the kind of games I truly love, which is what brings me here.

When deciding to finally work on RPGs, I looked at a ton of different engines. I've been using Unity since 2009, releasing several games with it, and to many people that would make Unity the logical choice moving forward. It wasn't for me, though. I wanted something new and fun and different, and after looking at RPG Maker it just kind of spoke to me, and I knew it could be the one.

So, having completed a few tutorials in RPG Maker MV, I'm smitten. This is awesome! Exactly what I've been looking for.

After spending some time reading threads and getting a feel for the community, I'm really happy to be here, so thanks for making this such a welcome place. :)

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.
