[RMXP] [RMMZ] [RM2K3] What's better for making an NES style RPG

Thanks for the tips.
I went ahead and bought 2k3 just in case I decide to use it instead of MZ.
That said I do think I know how to upscale pixels correctly if I need to.
As for fonts though yeah that may be an issue for me.

[RMXP] [RMMZ] [RM2K3] What's better for making an NES style RPG

Is RPG Maker 2003 or RPG Maker MZ better for making an NES style 8 bit looking RPG with side battles? I currently have RPG Maker XP and MZ. I noticed a sale for 2003. I'm most accustom to XP which doesn't normally have side battles though I'm sure there is a script for it. But, I'm thinking of making a game for sale this time and I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use outside scripts for a purchasable game. I've had an idea for an old fashion FF1 kinda game and was wondering if I should get 2003 for that. Also do modern computers have any compatibility problems with 2003? I've barely had time to practice using MZ though I heard all the magic is particle based or something like that which is not very NES like. Anyway,any advice would be appreciated.

Video game animals in monsters in real life.

What do you think some gaming animals would be like in real life?

I was just thinking if Chocobos were real, the likely wouldn't be the cute and cuddly animals that are portrayed in Final Fantasy. They'd likely be just as or more dangerous than a Cassowary bird which has been known to claws humans to death with their huge talons. In terms of diet, a Chocobo would not just eat Gyshal Greens but other things to. Cassowaries prefer fallen fruit, but will eat small vertebrates, invertebrates, fungi, carrion and plants.

How about something less realistic? What about a Goomba, a walking mushroom with a mouth. I imagine it's main defense would be that it would be poisonous to eat for most animals since it has very little in terms of physical defense. Since it has a mouth it would have to eat, so it's diet would likely be s rotting flesh of whatever predators left over as well as insects and plant matter.

Anyway, if you got a gaming animal or monster in mind share your thoughts.

A Major V Tuber is playing RPG Maker

Sorry it took me a while to respond, probably it is a 3.
Here's another ancient dice with a more standard looking 3.
These are from 30 B.C.–A.D. 364 during the time Egypt was under Roman control.
I forget the date of the previous image.

Here's a bonus some old game pieces that are straight up knuckle bones.
They're from the New Kingdom period.
ca. 1550–1458 B.C.

Yes yes, I remember having to change the the tv to channel 3 to play games.
I also remember only having enough space on a floppy disk to save a single weird fan art of Final Fantasy I made in MS Paint.
What is this, a old man challenge? Lets compete to see who is the least hip with the kids lol.
When is some one gonna win that challenge? Probably someone who chimes in by saying they played games with Egyptian dice.

How much hand-holding is necessary?

Before making my game public I listened to so many online who made fun of hand holding in games like Navi in Zelda Ocarina of Time.

But after putting out my game I understand now that hand holding is very much needed for many players. So, yes put in a lot of hand holding but I guess try not to make it feel annoying.

Game Magazines

One of my big magazine memories is seeing a game that looked like Final Fantasy but had a 6 man team battle. But, I could never recall what the game was.
In recent years I have found out that the game was almost certainly Romancing Saga 1.

Sum up the worst game you ever played in a single line.

Do phone games count because I got a smart phone for the first time recently and a good number of them are the worst games I've ever played.
Well instead I'll try to pick a console game.
