>>>Generally, universally considered an absolute garbage piece of shit by designers and gamers alike>Everyone keeps fucking using it, nearly every single big release uses itWHY?
Because it allows them to easily outsource half of development.
>>720677931The only two other choices are>spend months/years and millions of dollars making your own engine for a game that will struggle to break five figure sales>use unity
>>720677931
>>720679293I was here all day yesterday and no we didn't. You're a fucking liar.
>>720677931>Everyone keeps fucking using itthat might be because it's not actually garbage like you claim...in fact, only ignorant consumers are claiming this. completely ignorant to the fact that nvidia drivers are the cause for the myriad of issues people are blaming UE5 for. ask yourself "why does these issues only happen to people using nvidia cards?" and maybe you'll find your answer, or maybe you'll continue to be an ignorant asshat. it's been known for a long time, there are many reports on it, and yet you remain ignorant.
>>720677931Literally the best game of the year used it along with tons of things from its asset store and built in tools like MetahumansThe engine is fine
>>720677931It allows them to use all low and mid-level devs in the world as interchangeable pieces. High-level devs can do well using any tools and UE5 is still a good tool. They also aren't paid enough to build in-house engines anymore, it used to be standard practice that the engine guy was an owner of the company.
>>720677931It's not, the alternatives are worse and few will invest in rolling their own.
>>720677931all of the bad aspects of UE come from developer laziness, you can hire a bunch of autists to bake lighting and custom design LODs like the good ol days on UE if you wanted to
>>720677931Making in-house game engine requires a lot of talent and resources, it's much, much cheaper and easier to make the game in unreal and outsource the work to some pajeet in India who watched a few unreal tutorials on yt and then pay him $2 and hour, the game just has to look good to investors and shareholders who won't even play it anyway
And gamer cattle keep buying the games. Fuck gamers.
>>720677931>WHY?It's easy for Indians to use but hard to master. Also worst of all: it has an incredibly cheap licensing fee.
>>720677931I know that it's because the people who (seemingly) know how to work on it are so common, but how did it happen exactly? I'm feeling like there used to be much more engine diversity back in the day and now even studios with known and working engines just prefer to switch to UE5.If it really is because of Indians, why did Indians focuse on UE5 in particular?
>>720677931its for publishers that need to save money as much as possible and they dont care about quality.sony, sega, namco, konami, square enix, etc.
