    The RPG Maker engine is known for the overabundance of horror games, but very rarely considered are the titles that are more Sweet Home than Clock Tower. These 10 games feature unique and uncomfortable experiences that blend the fundamentals of turn-based RPG games with the aesthetics and atmosphere of modern and classic horror tropes.
    This video was supposed to be for Halloween, but I liked the idea too much to let it go when I ran out of time! Please don't ask me for any links to download these games. Thanks! 💀

    I'm still trying to remember a RPG Maker game about a black guy and his sister. He was a cleric or priest and his sister was a sorceress. Why I remember that so fondly is because it was incredibly rare to have a black main character and also rare to have a white mage main character. It was really well made and the story was engaging with a frightening enemy from their own mistakes.

  • @user-ot8wl7oh9s
    @user-ot8wl7oh9s Год назад +3

    As much of people love Omori my only biggest pet peeves about it is how long they stretch the game about something not related to the story, I really dislike how the headspace adventure (the most time you'll be spending on) is nothing sort of pointless it doesn't affect anybody or the story whatsoever and you don't even learn anything about anybody at all, it only finally gives you the main story piece and learning more about what you were interested in until the end of the headspace, it's like turning 180 degrees saying "oops forgot we have a main story of the game" after dicking around for hours.
    I feel like Omori would benefit much better if the game was cut down being more simple and straightforward. The story isn't Avant-garde writing; puzzle piecing or symbolism theorizing story like OFF or Endroll there's a clear message and story that could've been viewed in a much better and simple way.
    Either way for someone who loves the weird usage of storytelling on rpgmaker games and thought it would capture it like that just in a much bigger budget it was pretty disappointing it turn out this way.
    TLDR Omori feels like playing a sidequest for 20 hours of the game and only get like 1 hour of main story of the game, it's annoying.

    Ahh, I see you are a man of culture as well... Jimmy and the pulsating mass is kino af. After reaching the final stretch of the game, the different times it aluded to it broke me so much, hearing the ost of some of the optional super-fights make me bawl my eyes in hurt. Had good amounts of horror and unsettling things, hidden in childlike first stretches.

    You mentioned Sweet Home in the intro, and that's true, that's the kind of game I think of when looking for horror games with actual RPG mechanics. Most RPG Maker horror games like Corpse Party or Mad Father or Misao are more akin to topdown puzzle or chaser games; I seek horror games that are more like the classic Final Fantasy series, or maybe even strategy horror games that play similar to XCOM. Actually while looking at a list of horror turnbased games, one had Inscryption listed among them. In some way that kinda makes sense considering card games do go by turns.

    • @Riggy2k3
      @Riggy2k3  10 месяцев назад
