Usually starting with a new, unreleased-to-the-public demo
submitted to an official RPGMM previewer, previews are meant to
showcase the said games pros and cons (with the intention of
allowing the developer to address those concerns) and allow readers
to get inside the head of other community developers.
A RPG Maker Magazine preview is broken into 3 distinct parts:
Overview The overview can be brief or lengthy, but it mainly
deals with a general look of the overall content and materials.
Developer Interview One half of the big meat of a preview, the
developer interview is where our previewers pick apart the brain of
the developer and try to get information and answers about various
parts of the game being developed. It also introduces the developer
to the public.
Previewer Impressions The other big half of a preview, the
previewer impressions are where the previewer weighs in with his
or her opinion on the game in question at this point in time. The
opinion may point out some errors, but its main purpose is to
evaluate the potential of the game. The impression should not be
taken as a barometer of the games final presentation. Please look
at reviews for concrete opinions.
