I am thinking about making a small RPG. I know some basics of openGL, but I do not want create my own engine.

My criteria are:

  1. Ease of use
  2. Can do rpg game
  3. 3D

Which game engine is ideal for a 3D RPG?

What language are you using? And by the sounds of what you want, Unity3D is by far the best option, however subjective that is. – The Communist Duck Feb 11 '11 at 19:03

No, I am just stating that Unity3D is almost certainly the best option. And you are not going to get any other options unless you have a language choice. – The Communist Duck Feb 11 '11 at 21:03
You cant answer this "subject question" with a clear answer. you should look on other things such as, what skills does the developer team persist? which platforms do you want to publish this game on? I like Unity3D myself, but others prefere Unreal Engine because of its speed and effects etc. – BerggreenDK Mar 17 at 20:52

It all depends on the language you want to use. Py-Game or Blender's game engine are easy to use, in python (so easy) and open source. If you're going to make a game that requires a real engine though, PeterK is completely correct in saying that unity is by far the best (publicly available) engine on the market.

Pygame has nothing for 3D, but it looks like you really just mean BGE, and not Pygame. – Joe Wreschnig Feb 12 '11 at 13:52
