Now that RPGM MV is coming to PS4...

[Apostrophe]

Now that RPG Maker MV is coming to Playstation 4, will we be able to create a game on the PC software and compile to run on the PS4? And how will people be able to play our PS4 RPG Maker MV games if they don't own MV themselves?

Has this been confirmed by the developers or are you just guessing?

I can't see how this would work out in the long run if they don't allow us to create and compile the PS4 version on the PC. RPG Maker MV doesn't have a graphics or music editor, so you're pretty much going to be stuck making games using only the default assets. People want a unique experience; nobody is going to buy your custom game off the PSN store if you're just using the default assets.

I highly suspect it will not allow you to make games on the PC version and port them to console or vice versa. The mood among many of the members and mods on the RMW site is that the intent is to still keep the console versions separate from PC, which would be too bad if that's the case, especially if this thing goes to Switch as rumored. There's a few nice gems among the PC crowd from RPG Maker that would have been nice to play on the go.

Also, I read a few comments about how difficult it would be to create plug-ins for the console versions of MV, which leads me to suspect that scripts and plugs made for the PC version may not work well for the consoles. I hope all the new plugs and scripts on PC can work on the console versions, because if they don't and script developers decide to ignore the console market, then you'll be even more limited on what you can and cannot do.

You forgot to mention that it is brought out by a completely different publisher.
