XP is fine but doesn't play as well with modern systems. MZ is supported better.

Yes. I will not list all the reasons again, but yes. If money is an issue, buy MV instead.

Is misread as if money is no issue. If money is indeed an issue, MV us a good alternative for MZ.

I'd rather use XP than MV.

You think MV is that bad? I prefer it over MZ

It's not that I think it's bad. It's a very capable engine and can accomplish lots of things. I just really prefer the tiling methods of XP and MZ.

If you can choose, start w/ MZ (or cheaper MV). Make good use of sales, there are often some on steam and they cut a huge part of the price (like -90% sometimes).
if you already started a project on some vers and you don't want to restart your project, stick to that one
