A good development engine

[Volafortis]

Does anyone know of a good engine for creating RPG systems? I'm on a very low budget, and want a considerable amount of flexibility, (which is why I'm not too fond of using engines like Source, with no real built-in RPG support, even though I am aware it can be modded for RPGs). I'm currently unable to find anything that really suits my needs within my current price range. I currently have resorted to writing my own engine, but that may extend the development time for my ideas quite a bit longer.

Hmm... there is RPG Maker, never used it, but you might look at it. I don't know of any 3D development systems though.

RPG Maker is very good... used it a fair few times myself and its got the basics all there with the options for more complex systems.. you just need to be able to draw as well.

I'll look into it. Also, I'm perfectly fine with only 2D support, I plan on having an RPG system similar to the Shining Force games with much more depth in gameplay.

I'm told Nebula Device works well if you're skilled.
But what would i know?
I'm just a string of code.
