I think it's amazing as well, but we need to understand the caveats.
The videogame industry is notorious for over promising and under delivering.
Game Engines included.
Unreal Nanite and Lumen seemed amazing and has a great pitch/tech demo's, but in practice it's . . . not great. FPS have constant drops, and the complexity it introduced into game making workflow was heavy.
Several medium sized companies even have dropped nanite and lumen to go back to the old way of doing things.
Game Engine companies are notorious for leaving out important details about new features.
- waboremo 4y agoUnreal (and Unity) are no longer just for video games ;)
- dirtyid 4y ago>not great Is there any recommended reading/ranting on this?
- stuckinhell 4y agoBeyond the social media not really, reddit, twitter, idga forums. A lot of this borders "competitive intelligence" and game development is only getting increasingly competitive, so you typically need a friend to get you an invite into various private discord servers. I'm learning game dev in my spare time,and these various private discords are critical to learn how not to waste time on various "over-promised" techs, and focus on results.
