The turnaround from MZ to this was quick, huh?

[naii.neocities.org]

Was there so little faith in MZ that it couldn't even last longer than, what, 2 years?

MV had almost 5 before it got replaced, what happened?

[☜☆☞ Shadow ☜☆☞]

More like mz released 1.5 years ago.

MZ - although I do love it, was a quick payday for them.

Someone found a more detailed advertisement and posted it on RPGMakerWeb.

This is NOT a replacement for MZ, neither for the PC-based nor for the Console-Based MZ (Which are different and incompatible programs).

It is supposed to be the first product of a third line and programmed as an Unity plugin, not usable outside Unity.

[MikeyMooMoo]

That's just corporate speak, cause they don't wanna see people stop buying MZ.
Nintendo does similar things when they talk about consoles.
It's basically just "Yes this one is new, but please don't stop buying the last one" And then they come up with some kinda reasoning.

Does anyone remember when rpg maker mz was first shown on steam and how long it took the devs to fully release it?

Yes, I remember.

It's a common strategy to get the store page up and running to garner interest in the product way before the software is anywhere near completion.

yeah, so we can know how long it will take them to release Unite compared to MZ

Store page says 2022, bit vague but I think early 2023 at the earliest.

Nintendo also promised us that the DS and GBA were separate systems and made it sound like the GameBoy line would continue alongside a new line of devices that had 2 screens.

[myenemy]

Well, they say they will be together and all... but this is just like "Wii U and 3DS living together with Switch"...

[Zalzany]

MZ was better then MV still good, this was a better idea, with unity support it gives people waht they been asking for since day one. Such as with this in theory you could sell on Switch with out a ton of issues, any console will take it, but switch is more solo dev freindly, others you need to find a publisher for a shot.

I mean big reason for last two was it could run on phones, and computers, but first one sucked it wasn't optimized enough 2nd one is much better, but lacking features people been wanting for ages like console support, or more plug in support. Unity opens a huge freaking door for plugins, java was ok, but unity I got 3d render engine I use for my CG on my game ideas, and all my paid assets 100% unity compatible, with right plugins I can use that directly in game, then I got upgrade my licenses to "interactive" next time they go on sale if I do that though lol

Over years I got easy over 2 grand hell probably closer to 3 now of assets I use for renders that work in unity. That alone plus fact its got more comunity and plugin options means I am already put this on my wish list. Plus I hate Java, leanring python now next one will be c# debating it but honestly with this I might just do it, and take some classes in fall for it.

Yeah its common with every one, honestly if I ever get something worth tyring to sell I hate mapping so much, anyways you got wait a month in first place just to sell your product, you can bet would spend a few days putting together a promo video, and filling out the page, and showing the page before release to get noticed first. Its a pretty legit trick hell I met people with patreons who start out 1-3 versions ahead of their first release so they got a buffer if one month is slow to slack off lol. That always looks like they got a plan and are working when in reality they are waiting for feed back for the next update to work on lol

Granted it is better then peopel I seen do an amazing first release then go "ok what you want to see in next one?" Its like uh wait your not working on it now "Oh I got writers block so what do you want to see? And what you guys think, after that I will let you vote or suggest what is next for another 3 weeks before I start next update..." Oh oh I regret pledging any money to this...

It would be nice, but probably more chance of scientists turning round to us and saying:

"Yeah - actually... the moon IS made out of cheese."
