discussion Which game engine do you prefer?

[Umutumtrak]

RenPy when i play Visual Novels

 

[Trickster]

RenPy,Because I'm used to it.

 

[solcrow]

RenPy

Pretty much every game I enjoy is done with RenPy, so that makes it the winner.

 

[MrTrue]

Ren'Py for sure.
RPGM can be good but they are few and far between.

 

[Berzz]

Ren'Py all the way !
But, to be fair, I have not played much of the others

 

[MattShizzle]

I pretty much ignore all that aren't RenPy. I HATE RPGM. UE and Unity are too prone to crashing. QSP is extremely rare - and almost always either take place in Russia, are fantasy (I hate fantasy in adult games) or both. "Other" is almost always shit.

 

[paudemel]

RenPy cause have the most of the games, but i really like RPGM since is not about farming 4ever

 

[Enel]

i really like to play RPGM games, when they are well made. Doki Ninjas Vis Major for example is still my favorite game, but unfinished like almost all good RPGM games with 3dcg.

 

[siegberd]

no matter as long as it is good and playable

 

[Dely5064]

Unity , i dont really enjoy VN that much to choose Ren'py or grindy rpg's for RPGM

 

[dank04]

Ren'Py, but it'd be great to find a well polished Unity game

 

[DannyO24]

RenPy - VaM - Unity or RPGM?

Ren'Py all the way, it's simple and easier to Mod.

 

[LewisCarroll]

I mean, in a perfect world, Unreal Engine or Unity, but Ren'Py is perfectly fine if the story is good. Heck, I'd play Flash games too if the scenario was right.

 

[Dovahkiinzz]

Ren'Py, but RPGM is also good

 

[GhostyOps]

Renn'Py

 

[Python3]

RenPy, because it Always Works™ in Linux.

 

[Aster Ater]

I'm singing with the choir of Ren'Py enjoyers. It gives a great base level of functionality to VNs but still gives devs the opportunity to put in extreme levels of custom functionality. It's also the only type of game I'm comfortable modding which is a plus.
If the game is going to be browser based then sugarcube/twine is fine but it seems like it takes more developer effort to be usable. I can't mod these but I do know how to change the variables from the console which means I can work around the balance mess these games often have.

 

[xatfx]

RenPy, more flexible, simpler backup management...

 

[User_147440]

RenPy is by far better unless the dev is really gifted with the other engines.

 

[malvius]

renpy for sure number 1, with unity at second, only played like 5 good rpgm games
