It makes perfect sense. Why spend a great deal of time and effort reinventing the wheel? I mean, sure, if you have fun that means the time wasn't wasted, but building your own homebrewed RPG isn't all fun and games, there's a lot of hard work too.
(Especially if you want to tighten up those graphics on level 3, bro)
Hello Veeky Forums. I was wondering if anyone here knows any good turnbased RPGs with action points and tile map
> reinventing the wheel
I already told you that you wouldn't be reinventing the wheel. You would just be making another wheel.
>a lot of hard work too
Yeah and hard work is the best part of doing something if you enjoy the thing you are doing. You think people play basketball because its easy or something?
I'm not OP, and you're pretty cavalier with other people's free time.
People play basketball because they love doing it. OP doesn't want to build a game because he loves building games, he wants to build a game to serve a purpose, which means he is better off using something preexisting that will accomplish the task than building a whole new system to do the same thing.
>you're pretty cavalier with other people's free time.
wut
You're quite eager to convince him to expend large amounts of his free time on projects you'd like to see.
If doing this is such great fun and worthwhile, why don't you do it then?
>projects you'd like to see.
wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut
So you don't even have any interest, why are you pushing him so hard to do it, when he just wants to play a game, not build one?
Building your own game is a long and difficult process no matter how you dress it up. It can be rewarding, but you're still being pretty damn flippant about how tough it can be.
>when he just wants to play a game, not build one
Then he can just ignore my comments about him being a piece of shit for wanting other people to encourage him to do something instead of wanting him to do it himself.
>you're still being pretty damn flippant about how tough it can be
Not at all.

Jesus christ, dude.
Nah, I've seen too many lazy shitters in my life who do that shit.
