is it possible to make turn-based RPGs such as the earlier Final Fantasy series

It is possible to create an RPG with AGS, as I think a few people have made one. I'm not all too sure in how to do it myself, but hopefully the guys who made it will spot this... ;)

I have thought about doing this before and gone so far as to plan some scripts, but alas!Ã,  It is so complecated that a battle system for one room could take up to a month to build!Ã,  The only thing I really found out was that (a) making offense, defense, HP, and expirience requires so much scripting it will make you want to throw up and (b) all of the movement, animations, and weapons, items, will make you want to shoot yourself with a rifle!!!

AND YOU WANT TO MAKE IT TURN BASED!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
sorry, but I think you need to get a new engine, or make one h+!l of a plugin!!!

Could you delete that huge fucking long line? Its really annoying needing to scroll across to read messages >:(

Don't discourage people from making an RPG like that. You pretty much blatantly said that it can't be done, and whined about it. It is possible, as others have made them before.

I suggest going to the main page of the AGS website: www.agsforums.com and then doing a game search for RPG. If that doesn't turn up anything, try asking for the game in the General or Adventure Chat forums and see if anyone knows the name of any that have been made.

Yes, making an RPG in AGS is possible. In fact, anything is possible with enough scripting and determination. Hell, Andail made a platform game using AGS.
