Lodium: Probably because they are using the same engine and that engine has a lot of assets that looks pretty much identical
Also some devs are just plain lazy and gredy and are not willing to invest in new templates or artists that makes new pixel art and templlates and are therfore using the same thing that have been used at least 50000 times before
Its like if somone used the unreal engine but then used excatly the same assets that have used for other games countless times before
wich gets pretty boring after some time
i wish the people using the rpg maker engine or other simmalar engines at least changed it up sometimes and not used the same old assets, spirites, setting etc
Not much change except the character art and the story it seams from the screenshots and the description alone
so heres some ideas for creators since it seams lack of creativity is the standard
why not a sci fi setting?
Does the characters need to be the standard size all the time or even human look alikes?
TheGrimLord: This is simple. It's the anime and manga style, so yes. All the characters have to be standard size, look human and there have been "a few" scifi games in this genre, but most are fantasy inspired because of RPG Maker being conceived as an engine to make traditional RPG games. You see a few branch out every now and again, but it's mostly going to be the fantasy setting.
Also, please keep in mind that these games were not made for the rest of the world. They're made by the Japanese for the Japanese doujin market. These are essentially the bulk of Japan's indie games market. And again, different audience and more focus on eroticism then say, the western market.
Frostyfirefly: Has any person of culture played this one? I am curious about its erotic content; despite being almost identical, Kagura Games usually have some sort of fetish going on for each of their games (Steam Girl has a bunch of sex with gangsters, Makina contains situations with villagers and monsters, etc.). I wonder if this one takes on specific naughty situations, or if it's just a variety of compromising situations.
TheGrimLord: Just hop in Kagura's Discord. They create a new channel for their latest game as soon as it comes out. So you can hop in there and people will tell you exactly what it has. Always use their Discord when you want to know about their games.
If you only eat one sorts of food all the time most people end up getting bored of it
