for those of us who either don't have the time to program semi-random encounters (think "earthbound") or do non-random encounters like "aether chronical's: key to heaven" i'm attempting to come up with ways to make random encounters more bearable in game. here's what iv'e come up with so far

1) set # of steps to 40 on average and increase EXP and gold output by 1/3

this will give you less random encounters, yetyou'll get the same EXP and gold output for that area as if it had been 30 avarege

2) make a simple script that you can set a variable for each area were your garunteed X steps before the game starts calculating for random encounters

afterthought: don't mix 1 and 2, else you'll need to make your maps really big

anyone else have any ideas?

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

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.
