Imho, if you aim for a jrpg game, rpg maker is not a bad choice. What you call stigma is actually a preselection of target audience. If you only tagged it jrpg, because you use rpg maker, that's a different story.
If the engine cannot do what you want to do, then it would be prudent to consider a change of engines. But maybe first find out, if you really cannot implement the features you want.
