Yeah it's RPG Maker XV. It's a peak RPG Maker game. Made me bawl my eyes out multiple times. I will warn that it goes a lot deeper than a normal JRPG on the philosophy side bordering on cognito hazards, but I think that's what makes it such an amazing and emotional game. The soundtrack is some of the best I've ever heard. Spaces in Between makes me cry from just hearing it.
Sort of absolutely selling me on it tbh. Might be checking the bank account here real quick since it's on sale. I dig RPG Maker games. I loved To The Moon and been wanting to play the sequels but haven't gotten to it. I've also been wanting to check out Yumi Nikki because I like wield stuff in general.
In the past I've even considered getting RPG Maker because I wanted to try my hand at it but I think that ship has sailed.
E: Gonna keep an eye on the protondb reports for the game and probably get it at a later date. Or I might get it on Switch if it goes on sale.
Pirate RPG maker and do it. It's fun and worth it. Yeah, Omori has big Yume Nikki vibes but isn't as directionless as that game. Yume Nikki is cool, but the only people I've seen enjoy it are hardcore gamers or extremely casual gamers that don't care about game structure at all. If you download it, I expect that you'll probably only want to play it for an hour or two. It's free so there's no consequence, but it really is a difficult game to get into.
Omori has that weirdness and emptiness without feeling incomplete. This game hits me harder than any of the Lisa games while also being far less dark. There's this dream like confusion that defines the game that adds quite a bit to the emotion. Omori is difficult to get into thematically, besides it being fairly dense, I'd also describe it as the opposite of a game like Celeste. This game isn't about finding yourself, it's about losing yourself. I've never had a game leave me feeling so empty yet satisfied after beating it.
