Hmm

These are all possible:

Up to version 2.3 or 2.4, it does. However, it is possible to make 2.6.1 work on a Mac.

Yes it can! The dialogues and quests are very easily incorporated. Shop's would be possible (just some interesting coding needed) and you can customize your character.

It depends on how dedicated you are. If you're really interested on creating an RPG, it wouldn't take too long to pick up the coding, but to actually use it would require experimentation. Also, mapping and the other tools of in-game editing don't take two hours to pick up the basics. It's a very competent engine.

but when you say it is possible to make 2.6.1 work on mac what do you mean are there things i dont get or do i need to code to make it work? and coding?
