Bakin vs RPG Maker - difficulty

[indoctrine]

How much difficult and time consuming is Baking, in compare to RPG Maker?

[highwizard]

in my case that I have experience with both 3D and 2D I would say they are very similar if you use the default resources.
but if you want to add your own bakin is much easier to implement new assets, place them on the map, the physics scheme etc.
the rpg maker only works through cells.

I used RPG maker before, and I abandoned it. It was good to make simple games but when you want to make games with customizations, the way you want, it became too difficult. If you are looking for difficulties as a beginner or as someone who wants to customize your game? From the look of it, Bakin isn't complex as Unity, Unreal Engine, or even Godot, but it offers more customizations than RPG maker.

I am looking for app not needed from me coding skill. In RPG Maker, I was able to make simple (or even semi-complex) game without coding. Using external assets was also easy.
Can I make simple game - hero looking for something in cave, must fight monsters, meet companion, etc, without coding?

Absolutely! That type of thing is really easy to set up. If you used Rpg Maker then Bakin is just as easy to do something as simple as what you just explained.

You could make a very high quality game on Bakin if you put enough time into it. It's not hard to do. But, it does take a while to do it. But, basically once you learn the UI the simplicity is about the same as RPG Maker. At the moment on YouTube there are a bunch of tutorials that will explain how to do basic functions to get you started.

I really feel like people are looking at the engine with rose-coloured-glasses, there are many issues with Bakin that make even the simplest things hard to do compared to more polished engines like RPGM. Do yourself a favour and wait until they fix the huge number of bugs and missing features.

WOW! .. of course RPGmaker is more polished, it's been around for years.. LMAO!
Bakin got released like 4/5 days or so ago..
Man, these people expecting perfection on an Early Access.. LOL!
Even makes me laugh at times !!

ehhh thats not a good reason, Bakin has the advantage in looking over its competition before it comes out.

I think the worst problem is that theres so few assets that come with the early release. I dont find the UI too bad but someone mentioned a search button and I feel that would be handy

People just ain't getting it.. its EA, they release ES's so people can beta test, report bugs and issues.. saves the company £$£$£$ in employing people to beta test it for them. Even then,even if they did that, there's guarantee someone would find a bug or issue.. so it's better to release EA to public so they can find all the bugs and issues.

Some people just need to start realising EA don't mean 'perfect working condition', it means 'in working condition with bugs present that we cant be arsed to find ourselves..' LMAO!
