In my first post since I was registered there was a response I liked regarding on what should be the first thing you should do when it comes to game design. I'm going to link the reply for context: Link, click here
The line I'm going to focus specifically is this:
My intention with my game is creating a game that focuses on story and visuals. That said, it should be obvious to anyone with experience that combat should be well-taken care of, I'm not going to ignore the combat system and keep it default.
Now I'm asking the question of should a story-based game have a prototype before the demo, or should have just a demo? And the reason I'm asking this is what difference does it make with the demo if the story will remain the same, even if there are corrections to the introduction to the story?
The line I'm going to focus specifically is this:
I've seen in videos from RPG Maker creators and one of the tips they encourage other creators is releasing a prototype before releasing a demo. I imagine that this way would be better for putting users' feedback better than releasing the demo only when all resources are in place. Correct me if I'm wrong.

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.
