What's wrong with unreal engine 5...

[–] AngryMob@lemmy.one 35 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Performance mostly. But also even when made by various AAA studios, the resulting games often have this uncanny similar-ness to them. Personally i prefer in-house engines even if its just to maintain variety in the industry.

Also obligatory shout out to id tech for continuing to show off their engines with indiana jones.

Yeah I don't understand why they don't just use SDL3 to make their own engine.

Given my experience with it in Satisfactory it's rather heavy.

ue4 was already bad in that regard. Really sad that cdpr dropped their own engine as licensed engines are wrecking the engine market (mostly epic tbh). Just so not worth it to delevop ones own.
