Using Yanfly's Status Menu plugin, or more likely a custom script based on it, to show the character's primary parameters on one page, and then some new secondary ones on another, would it be easier to redefine the base parameters (Attack, Defense, M. Attack, etc.) to behave differently from their default with regards to what equations use them and their other effects, or would it be easier to move certain of those parameters to the second page?


For example, I'd like to have a level-based Vitality stat that increases Max HP (the reason being to allow equipment bonuses to HP to have level-based diminishing returns), and an Armor stat that derives solely from equipment which reduces damage taken. Vitality should show up on the primary status page, and Armor should show up on the secondary page. Would it be easier to redefine DEF to function as Vitality, and create a new Armor stat, or to leave DEF as Armor, create a new stat for Vitality, and move them around to show up on the right pages?


(P.S. There are several other stats I'd like to do similar things with, like having ATK modify a weapon-based damage stat rather than be used as the base damage stat, so it isn't just the one.)

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!
