Monsters in 3

[Lone Phantom]

Does anyone know how monsters are going to be created, becuase
I am tired of just adding color, or changing size, what if we want to make
a ifrit, like in number two, Rpg maker 2, there was not a ifrit, so I had to make
a custom battle system with a ifrit.

select a model, select a color variation (there are four), and thats it.

[Lone Phantom]

I guess I should not ask you how many monsters there are, that would ruin the surprise.

[Valkysas]

I have no idea how many there are.

[The Toecutter]

It's like RPGM1, but looks to lack the ability to make your own monsters as well. I hope it has a lot more variety than RPGM1 and 2 combined, but I have my doubts.

I hope the character models don't have just 4 colors to chose from like in the first RPG Maker.

[Big Rick Cook]

I believe that the character models are the same in that they have 4 color variations.

I hope people stop saying things like this soon, especially since I've already said there are four color variations around six times on this forum.

[Zero]

sorry about that

[Valkysas]

its okay, just... try to not let it happen again. while I will still answer your questions, it can be a bit annoying saying the same thing over and over.

There are 49 monster models.
There are more color models for the characters than there are for the monsters. Monsters models generally range from 3 colors for small monsters to 1 color for full screen monsters.

[The Toecutter]

Wow. That sucks horribly. Most people will end up using the exact same monster for their final boss, and if it's one color...

Well lame. I still look forward to seeing what the character list contains, and perhaps the monster and building list, but I'll probably be disappointed. Even still, I do have some medieval setting ideas, but they aren't anywhere near as good as my other ideas and I probably might pass them up, depending on whether or not I pick RPGM3 up even.

Knowing you can use character models as monsters though is a big plus.

[Crimson Knight]

Well, you can just think the monster had multiple casting jobs.

"Oh man, another party that can do 10,000 damage in one turn? When will the carnage end? I don't get paid enough for this!"

[Draygone]

Yeah, 49 monsters is a rather low amount, even though it doesn't count the 50-80 regular characters that can act as monsters (with a small amount of those being possible monsters). Looking at RPGM2, if you didn't count the human-like "monsters", you'd still have something like 80-90 of them available.

[Crimson Knight]

...with fully customizable color schemes and body size.:p I loved making small enemies REALLY big. :lol

[tjoris9]

It makes me think of the "secret" monsters in 1. You know. The ones that you needed to import onto your memory card. I kind of wish there was a chance of something like that here, but there probably isn't.
