The "Player Central" view is the classic camera angle you see with games like Final Fantasy 7.There are four of them and they can all make for some very interesting gameplay decisions. You get to choose your camera angle that's best fit for your game. Or it can be a curse for those who swap out their party members constantly (akin to Octopath Traveler).Ĭharacters in Bakin can be either 3D models that turn as the camera moves or 2D stamps that will always appear flat on the screen to the player's camera angle. It can be a blessing for those who wish for more autonomy with a "leader but not fighter" type of playstyle (akin to Pokémon). This can be either a blessing or a curse. In RPG Maker, the player character is determined by the first character in the player's party. RPG Developer Bakin is interesting in how it handles the player character. This can be a time saver for those who want to create a minimalist project or a project with completely unique assets and don't want to waste time having to remove everything.

Now that Early Access is out for Bakin, let's take a look at what Bakin has to offer. However, the question is, does Bakin do what RPG Maker MZ does better or is there some work to be done? They're no strangers to what an RPG needs and it shows with Bakin. I say "new" because it's actually created SmileBoom, who made Smile Game Builder, another RPG Maker-esque engine. RPG Developer Bakin is the "new" RPG Maker-esque engine on the block. 12.2 Score Rating for Expanded Features.
