Example Use Cases
How to Use
Add custom messages to your skills and items via the following notetag:
The “m1” and “m2” variables correspond to the message line as they are normally specified in RMMV on skills and items. Note that “subject”, “user”, and “a” all refer to the actor using the skill or item, and “item” and “skill” both refer to the item or skill being used.

FAQ
Q: Does this work with YEP - ______?
A: While this plugin doesn't actually require any of Yanfly's plugins to perform its function, it should still be completely compatible with the YEP. As it is, I run an almost full YEP stack by default without issue.
Q: Is this able to be used in commercial projects?
A: Absolutely! Wouldn't that be cool?!
Q: If I use this, do I need to say so anywhere?
A: If you can make use of my work on any level, then I would absolutely love to know about it, but I make no attribution requirements or the like. NeMV is licensed under the WTFPLv2.

This plugin is the response to a request by Goldschuss. After seeing how simple this would be to write, but how absolutely needed it was, I simply couldn't resist. I hope you get more from it than you expect. Happy messaging!

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!
