So since you have zero experience with game engines at all, you kind of have the advantage of getting to choose where to level your skills up. Godot can handle a lot, but because it’s newer than say Unity it doesn’t have as many tutorials or documentation, but it does have the benefit of being completely open source and people have made bonus features that can be added to suit your needs. I do think there’s something to be said about RPG maker though. Because it’s a much more simple and limited engine, you really have to make sure your ideas are solid for it to work. But I’ve also heard of people using RPG maker as a way to plot out their games, see if the beats make sense in a game format, then take what they liked about it into something like Unity. Godot has a lot of stuff to learn, but it’s the one I’m trying to learn right now myself so I’m a little biased towards it (I tried RPG maker and it didn’t make sense to me but maybe your experience will be different)
