"Sturgeon's Law, Taste and RPG Maker"

You know, it's kinda odd that Final Fantasy is automatically assumed to be the default JRPG type that people are supposedly emulating in RPG Maker. I don't really find that FF is always the prototype, unless the game is specifically named Final Fantasy Blah Blah Blah.

When I think of the generic RPG Maker game, I think of Alex, age 16 and master swordsman. He meets his girlfriend, a cute spunky healer princess who banters with him all day long. There's also a beefy un-magical guy and a black mage. The sleepyhead hero wakes up late and then his village gets destroyed. Together, they are caught up in events bigger than they ever imagined and have to save the world. The tone is mostly happy and cheerful, with lots of casual humorous dialogue, and anime style face sets.

The classic FFs, being FF4 and FF6 for the west, never had all this stuff. For the most part, these FF games had a serious and somber tone, the characters didn't have a whole lot of chitchat between them, and they didn't have an anime style look. A lot of other RPG cliches and tropes aren't even found in these FF games.

I can't believe I never saw any of these @@"

Roke and Korwin are noobs. That's why they have to start going to school =)

I think that not having the grading chart will make the player focus less on stats, and give the "unappealing" classes a better chance to get picked.

I feel like the skills and sprite could be a little smaller, and the description box could be a little bigger.

Nice touch with the rotary phone and rice cooker too.

Good eye on those shelf feet. I just realized that it should be Greenbriar, with ia instead of ai... I always thought it was supposed to sound like "bear"... oops...

Roke's throwing items and Korwin's arrows counts as skills too =)
Hmmm ok maybe I'll increase their starting levels a bit too.

Legends Of Illarion: Nostalgic Remaster Edition

Wait... I just realized there's like 3 dwarves in that room named Thorfin... LOL
How could I let that happen!!??

Legends Of Illarion: Nostalgic Remaster Edition

Hmm yeah I get what you mean with the palm trees, but visually, there's so much space between the tree lines so I felt like it kinda should be passable.

Btw, do you happen to remember if the empty bottle typo was always there, or a new thing?

Legends Of Illarion: Nostalgic Remaster Edition

Hmmm... level ups at the end of each chapter. That's not a bad idea! I think I just might do that eventually. Thanks!

Legends Of Illarion: Nostalgic Remaster Edition

I admit... I got lazy with Sirani's temple =D

Maybe I should just get rid of the green lights puzzle instead? I wanted to add something to do besides walking around a big map fighting monsters. I should probably make that map smaller too.

I want to give exp to the reserve party too, but I wish there was a default setting for that like in RMVX ACE =(
