Now I've heard about implementing New Game+ without the use of a script, which basically just involves resetting all the necessary switches and variables to their initial/fresh states, but I can't seem to get my head around how to reset to an earlier part of the game instead of the beginning (similar to loading an earlier pre-determined save point). This is problematic in RPGs with an in-game time limit/calendar that uses timed events and players need an option to rewind time to an earlier point as to not put themselves in unwinnable situations due to bad time management - but their progress had to be reset as well (all the quests completed in that time frame, items/money obtained etc) to some degree to balance things out.
One good example would be the Persona games that gives you the option to go back a week in the in-game time should you fail to clear the dungeon before the deadline, but undoes all the progress you've made over the course of the resetted week.
I was wondering if this can be realistically done with RM's eventing without making it a horrible mess.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
P.S. I was looking for opinions for the idea in general because this isn't maker specific but can consider moving this to support if deemed inappropriate for this section.

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!
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.
