A little about Ace...

RPG Maker VX Ace provides all the tools you will need to make the game
you've always dreamed of. Make your game, your way with all the
following features:

1. An enhanced map editor to build your world.

2. A Character/Enemy/Skill/Equipment Database with a new powerful, flexible Features system.

3. New event options, including playing Ogg Theora video.

4. Expanded default resources, including a built in Character Generator to form your own custom sprites and faces.

Ace enhances RPG making with several powerful new tools. We have never offered a product before that allowed such flexibility to the user without the need for any coding knowledge. These new tools are not only flexible, but also incredibly simple to learn and use, being accessed through a simple point and click interface.

Physical copies, and Steam?

I am not quite certain what the purpose of this on Steam is. (Tough, to be fair, after hearing that it'd be available on it I did add shortcuts to all the makers I own in my Steam library just for fun...XD)
However, I do like the fact that there is at least one english RPG Maker now that you can get in a box =D ...In America anyway XD It's the newest one, of course, but it adds something to the feelings as a RM user ^^

If it only were some RMXP deluxe version...

This and the news that the maker is now on Steam is very welcome information to me. It's a sign that people may finally be able to take RPG Maker seriously as a development engine and it's about time we had that!

[kyonides]

But, Samven, can we really say that it's ready for commercial game development? OK, perhaps you didn't mean it was also intended to catch small gaming companies' attention at least but just for individuals and obviously RPG fans.

I'm not sure I understand the question... There are plenty of commercial games that have been made with RPG Maker by small indie groups already. Obviously a professional company would use something bigger like the Unreal Engine or something. So... yeah?

[kyonides]

What I mean is that it's still an engine with a serious need to improve some areas or several of them, even more before lauching it as a product ready for some really serious game developing. Of course, that's just my humble opinion, i might be wrong and could be underestimating VX Ace.

To be fair, if you can script you can do pretty much anything you want with it. Just look at MGC's work in XP creating a real 3D environment.

I prefer Rpg Maker XP Version. I was tried Ace version, but it's not for me. In my opinion RMXP has better friendly interface than Ace and more capabilities.
The Enterbrain should make Rpg Maker Xp Ace Version. :)
