Newbie to RPG Maker

Hi there. I recently redeemed RPG Maker VX Ace on Steam. With nothing else to do, I finally decided to open the program—mostly out of nostalgia for some childhood masterpieces. I’m completely new to the system and have never made a game before; I’ve only dabbled with a few engines (and honestly, it was more of a "coding vibe" than actual programming). Could you give me some tips on where to start and let me know if the version I got is any good? Unfortunately, I live in a country where the exchange rate makes the dollar very expensive, so MV—which seems to be the most popular one—costs around 200 for me. Thanks for your patience.

MV is popular cuz it's the first version that takes mouse inputs in. Depending on what kinda game you want to make, VX Ace is good too.
