Is RPG Maker XP still a viable option?
#10
For some reason I've never been able to get over RPG Maker XP. It's true that it's severely outdated in many aspects, but it makes up with the ability to create marvelous looking maps. What I love the most about it is that I can create my maps in Photoshop, cut them up to the standard 256x(whatever you want) tileset, import it into the engine and work with it. It allows for infinite possibilities.
I actually started out with RPG Maker VX back in 2010, and immediately switched to XP precisely for this advantage, I just feel it gives me more freedom, and I've been able to create great games with it. 
As for MV, I have no idea, I've never actually tried it, but in my opinion, RPG Maker XP is still a gem.
