Is this the most soulful game engine of all time?
>>
It's the antithesis of soul

>copy pasted derivative thoughtless shovelware
Ye, definition of soul, ackshually.

>superfast default field movement speed to appease ADHD ""QoL"" crybabies
Inverse soul
>>
>>736358101
The early versions were, but the soul was slowly lost, starting from 2003.
>>
Anybody who likes even a single game in this engine is absolutely dead to me
>>
>>736358101
Soul is just production values with lack of mechanical polish.

Why the hate?
It feels pretty forced

Only RPGM2000 and RPGM2003 are SOULFUL

Everything that came afterwards is SOULLESS
>>
>>736358101
No, XP had the most soul,
VX and VX ace are technically better engines, but that was were the soul started leaking out of the rtp.
>>
>>736359197
Name 5 (five) good XP games or you're full of shit

No but it is the most coomful

Except you can import all of your own assets into it. And it has ruby built in. You can build literally anything in RPG Maker

RPG MAKER VX
IT'S ALMOST LIKE CHEATING

>>736358670
RPG maker does horror alright, Ib is a classic for it
But yes 99% of the games are just hentai shovelware

That that anon but the engine is extremely limited, you can code in it now, sure, but some basic functions such as changing resolution or the grid size aren't there. How can you make an engine this bad? They've been doing this shit for over 26 years and they won't even give you the choice of changing grid size or giving a free movement such as Chrono Trigger in 1995??

Stopped using RPGM a few years ago, started messing with it in 2000, it's shit. It's only quality is how easy it is to setup and make RPGs, which is why so many bad games come out of it.
>>
>>736359698
Not that anon*

RPGM ruined my brain and now I'm retarded
>>
>>736359398
But that would mean effort and you can't expect that from the average rpgm slop "dev".
I've seen more effort from fucking eroge devs than the hacks releasing their halfassed money grabs on steam for example.
Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the engine itself, but at the end of the day, it's just a tool.

>RPGMaker game is a 20 minute demo where the party is obviously the creator’s self insert, his friend, his crush, and his dog
Shit game but ultragigasoulful

The real problem is that coomers will tolerate mediocre games just because they have porn in them, but will refuse outright to play excellent games the moment you tell them it doesn't contain porn.
There are plenty of excellent quality RPG Maker titles like Ruina: Fairy Tale of the Forgotten Ruins, Hat World: New Testament, Enchant Farm, and many others that put most commercial JRPGs to shame, yet no one knows about them because they prefer to spam the same tired porn garbage instead of broadening their horizons.
It's the same issue with VNs. There are subhumans (coomers) who will outright refuse to engage with an excellent VN if it doesn't contain porn, but will slop through hours of sludge if it has porn in it.
tl;dr - coomers are a blight upon all that they touch.

The trick to enjoying indie games is to play demos not profit driven products. There’s also no achievements and no social clout from liking *popular thing* involved so it gatekeeps normalfags.

It allows artists and writers to make vidya even if they have zero development experience in game design, so yeah it is soulful.

It's like being mad that people don't care about the story in pornhub videos. Of course they don't, it's not the point
>>
>>736361928
that anon isnt talking about porn games, you third worlder, he's talking about normal rpgmaker games that are overshadowed by porn ones. Sometimes you get a hit like Look Outside but a lot of honest to god good games get overlooked because it's not porn and that's entirely on the braindead audience.
>>
>>736362103
You have issues lol
