Hello everyone!

[pyn]

Hello there! I'm pyn. I'm a writer with a passion for old school JRPGs. I've been using RPG Maker programs since 2003 was the big new thing, but I mostly just messed around on them. When VX came out I started my first serious project with a friend, but unfortunately that project had to be put on hold indefinitely before we got too far into it.

I've been meaning to get into RPG Maker again, but as a Mac user it was not really an option for me. Then a friend told me about MV and I haven't been able to think about anything else since. I've spent the last two weeks fussing over plot details, watching Yanfly's videos, and drooling over the graphic and music we have available... In short, I'm pretty excited.

Welcome to the community, pyn! It's good to see a veteran of RPG Maker! I feel you with being a Mac user. I have to use Wine and things to RPG Makers which sucks XC But RPG Maker MV will change that! Have a fun ride on the RPG Maker MV bandwagon! Hope for it to not be a bumpy ride!

Welcome!

What are some of your favorites?

Phantasy Star II (my first JRPG ever, back in the days of Genesis)

Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger (I could only ever play them at friends' houses as a kid, but thank god for re-releases)

Final Fantasies I, 2/4, and 3/6, though that's a franchise I got into way too late (9 was the newest game when I started playing)

Dragon Warrior/Quest 1-3 (the GB releases got me through countless road trips)

I'm currently playing Earthbound for the first time. It seems to be one of the major influences for a lot of the indie games I enjoy (OFF, Undertale), so I figured it was about time I got around to it. It's probably safe to assume it will end up on the list when I am done.

And if you want to consider it old-school, Star Ocean: The Second Story. I'll be the first to admit that it is far from the greatest game on this list, but it is by far my favorite.

It's a... pretty stock list, I'll be honest. ^^;

Final Fantasies 2/4

You sir, just won a gold star from me. FF 2/4 is one of my all time favorite games out there. I've played it so many times! I actually recently bought a SNES again, and I'll be buying FF 2/4 once I'm back in the states, though it's mildly expensive for a snes game...

Welcome aboard, glad to see a new variety of users(Mac) jumping into MV, it will be nice too see more games by people who just had no oppurtunity before.

Haha, I WISH I could have experienced that game on SNES. My first exposure to it was in the Chronicles release on PSX with Chrono Trigger, and now I play it on the GBA... and PSP... and the remake on DS... *ahem*
