What is the best program and script for newbie game designers? I already have a copy of VX Ace on my laptop but have heard good things about MV and have thought about picking up a copy when I have the money to do so. I am most interested in doing RPGs. What are peoples's impressions, experiences and etc with different engines? VX, VXA, SMBX, GM and or Unity? What scripts have everyone found to be the most versatile and or easy for beginners to use? Thank you to all who respond in advance. :D

VX Ace is the easiest and currently the best Enterbrain Engine out there.

If you want to make visual novels instead of RPGs I heavily recommend Ren'Py.


Game Maker and Unity are not easy to use in any sense of the word. Prepare for watching a lot of tutorials and experimenting a lot.
You will not be making a game anytime soon using these engines.

If you want to make RPG's, stick to the rpg maker engines. For begginners, that's the best engine.

Making an rpg in game maker is nightmarishly difficult. You'll cry when you try to code a functioning textbox. You can't make rpgs in smbx as it is an engine more suited to platformer games. I've never used unity so i can't opinionate on it.
