NTA but that's a very half-assed justification. That's like saying 'Any system can do Sci-fi'.
And down that road lies shit like D20 modern where you're trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole because 'Round holes can handle square pegs'

Yes you could 100% remake the entire campaign and plot of Crysis using RPG maker if you really wanted to.
But let's not pretend it'd be the exact same game given the mechanical limitations of the engine, at least not without tearing everything out to the point where you can't even really call it the same engine with a straight face.
