Your Next Adventure Awaits: RPG Maker MZ Trailer #1

[Leokids]

@Leokids I've merged your thread with the already existing MZ discussion.

Ok....

When MZ Arrives. Unmerge Again. Ok?

You know, I get that people don't like the marketing, but can people at least wait until all the information is out is out before they start talking about how "This isn't worth it, this is garbage, etc."

I do get it guys. If I had 100% control of the marketing, I probably wouldn't have done it this way either.

But it's not fun for this whole thread to turn into people bashing on something as though what has been shown so far is everything.

I'm taking a mostly wait and see approach..
I'm not excited YET.
But once all the cards are laid out on the table.. then i'll know for sure how to feel.
I do like the layering.. that's good.
I need at least one or two more things before i'm able to pass any sort of judgement.

No, I won't. If you have questions or requests about kid sprites that are available after MZ is out, you can post them in the appropriate place. For now, we don't need a bunch of speculation threads on the same topic (MZ).

Ok. I Was thinking You Merged Into The Wrong Place. But Now That You Explained to me. Its Okay.

 

[Leokids]

One Question.

1. RPG Maker Will Stop Supporting Windows 7 In MZ? It said that The Minium Requirements Were 8.1/10 For Windows 10. Maybe its Because of Windows 7 End of Support?

 

[Touchfuzzy]

I mean Microsoft ended support of W7 at this point. It may still run on W7, but we can't guarantee that.

 

[nio kasgami]

I was discouraged in the beginning as well but it's more I was hyped to see some more 'meat'? but then I realised hey it's slowly more progress and I returned to do some more programming for the futur plugin engine I am working on for MZ. to me I am fine to wait a week so we can begin to speak about EVERYTHING'S that MZ can offers.

Well. After MZ Release. Windows 7 Users Will be Stuck at MV?

 

[BloodletterQ]

I noticed some new monster types that would compliment those of MV. But I still hope we get a skeleton warrior instead of a dancer. Same for that zombie chick with oversized kitchen utensils as weapons.

 

[RoooodWorks]

MZ more like mZzzzzzzz

 

[Tea's Jams]

That tree monster thingy is really good looking and it has a walking sprite too!

Also, I am going to have sooooooooo much fun playing with offset in the generator

 

[Touchfuzzy]

Another EN shot of stuff you could see in the Trailer. This time the Animations tab:

 

[Sword_of_Dusk]

MZ more like mZzzzzzzz

Yes, because we absolutely know all there is to know about the engine. We can definitively say it's crap, right?

 

[Mimironi]

I'm overall neutral-optimistic about MZ. I'm interested in it, definitely!! And I'm looking forward to what the coming weeks will show. I'm being surprisingly patient about these announcements.

Though the laptop I have right now is super small and I've used most of the space on it so I... don't think I can get this if it actually IS 8GB. Unless I uhh somehow expand the space I've got on this laptop?? Or get a different one with more space.


...Anyway my ultimate verdict on MZ so far is that

This guy's pretty cute

 

[Bastrophian]

I really like the reposition of the sound/frame windows :3 . Now I wont get cross eyed trying to make edits to them. lol

And you know, that is a valid point to make. However, this is how they chose to release the information to the general public, and the information they've chosen to release is subpar at best. It's their bed they made, and now they have to sleep in it.

Sure, it isn't fun, but who's fault is it, honestly? Not an attack on you, or even MZ, but this marketing approach of spoon/drip feeding tidbits of information has gone from bad to absolute worse. They need to cut their losses, and just release more information all at once.

But they won't, because they don't truly care about the Western market. And I don't believe they ever will.

 

[BreakerZero]

Well. After MZ Release. Windows 7 Users Will be Stuck at MV?

Sadly that would be correct. And even though I'm using MV I intend to follow likewise because it's basically expected at this point.

Also, I believe that you're not supposed to be double-posting unless it's been like 72 hours minimum, and it seems the mods didn't notice as of when I started writing this. (Though in this case I'm not necessarily trying to mini-mod which is another thing we try not to do around here, but instead I'm more or less just pointing it out as a favor.) You can actually edit posts if there's something you forgot to mention.

 

[Leokids]

And Unlike Others Users,When MZ Arrives I Wont Stop Using MV And Any of my RPG Makers. I will Just Stop Using My RPG Maker 2000 If I Had One to Replace it With MZ

 

[Tea's Jams]

Just a side note, to all those who are upset that win8.1 or win10 is required, win10 has a free version. It's free, legal to use and has no duration/use limits. -Redacted, I was incorrect about this.

 

[Touchfuzzy]

But they won't, because they don't truly care about the Western market. And I don't believe they ever will.

1. The marketing is the same in both JP and EN, in fact, because I'm around, more than likely you guys are getting MORE information than the Eastern audience.
2. You realize the only people from Degica or KDKW who are reading all these comments is me and Archeia, right? That I've been reading every single response to every single post I make. And all I can do is report to people above me, but they aren't the ones who are having to deal with vitriol every second of every day since we announced.
3. We've been very up front that we haven't shown everything yet, all I'm asking is that people wait until all the info is out before they say MZ itself isn't worth it. I didn't even say don't criticize the marketing, I said don't call MZ itself garbage when you don't even know what the new features are yet.
4. Man, I'm just trying to make it through the day.
