Why do some people seem to really hate RPG Maker?
Just want the details on why

It railroads you into specific gameplay formats
The kind of creative gameplay UTDR has isnt possible in it because it is very restricted in genre
The seams of generic RPGmaker are rarely eradicated fully as the engine is designed with the expectation of all the most generic RPG mechanics being present for it. You have to wrangle them so much just to get any half unique game style going.
The effort done to make a unique game in RPGmaker is so high it would be easier to just make a game from scratch

It's nice bike training wheels for a Creator but some people mistake it for a motorcycle.

>>730626336
It made making games easy which means lots of bad games

rpgmaker users are not devs

That's homophobic.

>Why do some people seem to really hate RPG Maker?
They envy several people that become big E-Celebs playing and reviewing RPG maker games.

It's this one schizo (>>730626834) and retarded newfags being fooled into parroting his narrative, not "some people"
>>
>>730626336
Because retarded devs use it for all kinds of gameplays it wasn't designed for except the one it was designed for. Also it was designed to run on a pentium IV and 2GB of RAM so games will always lag even if you have a super computer.

>Why do some people seem to really hate RPG Maker?
generally because of free will, there's no one thing or subject everyone will agree on
>Just want the details on why
either they don't like rpg games and turn based combat or they want "more" and view rpgm as producing less. putting aside how wrong the statements are the initial assumption that rpgm is supposed to do anything beyond make basic rpg games is stupid, more stupid when you consider that with enough skill and ingenuity you can remove the "basic" part and make unique rpg games
>>
>>730626336
Same reason people hate Unity, because anything that is free and relatively accessible is going to result in a lot of lowest common denominator developers using it to release slop, and then people who know nothing about programming assume that the engine used is responsible for the sloppy results somehow.

One of the issues it that the games that get popular do so because of things that aren't the technical or gameplay side, but rather, the aesthetic and writing side.
If people simply strove to play better games that are actually great examples of what you COULD do with the engines instead of paying money for default-systems sludge that just happens to LOOK pretty, then people's opinions would improve drastically overnight.

Because 99% of the slop made with it is slop
>>
>>730631414
That's the catch-22 with RPG maker though. It's default RPG mechanics are ass. And if you know enough about coding that you can fix them and make a good RPG system... well then you also know enough to use a more robust engine without RPG Maker's limitations

There's a period in life when you want attention real badly, but have nothing to warrant it. The easiest way around that is to pretend to be retarded.

I hate the cute graphics.

Me personally I just hate how later versions of RPG Maker sacrifice their tools for the sake of making them more accessible to noobs. It's gotten to a point where the way they sell the versions to you shows how much they just want you buying plugins for later versions. I regret buying MV/Z because my steam feed is nothing but announcements of them selling asset packs and other bullshit. It's just become less honest overtime.

What did you mean by this? Is this just you saying that "rpg maker games I PERSONALLY don't like don't count, because I JUST SAY THEY DON'T OK!? GOD!"

It's an engine that never got the moment that helped Unity crawl out of its bad rep, partially due to normies not caring about RPGs. There's plenty of RPGM games made by people who love the engine(s).
>>
>>730626336
99.9% of all RPG Maker games are absolute trash made by talentless retards.
It's basic pattern recognition.
