I'd only ever use Unity, Godot or Bevy if I want something really custom.
This fully covers anything I could ever want.
Not interested in any of those bloated AAA tier engines.

Cryengine only works in exporting in Windows, it lacks certification for Xbox, Sony, Nintendo and Mac. Even then Windows might change their ruling and request people to install Visual Studio that isn’t compatible with Cryengine. Why are you suggesting people use this dead engine.

Kingdom Come 2 uses CryEngine and shits on Stalker 2 massively which barely runs at 20 fps on medium settings. It visually surpasses it by two heads.
>>1013667
Stalker 2 can run 60 fps for few minutes and then drop at sub 1 fps especially in Zalissya, on any settings, on system better than minimum recommended listed on Steam. Most UE5 games have similar issues.
>>1013667
That’s because the only people who still know how cryengine work have been working on that game and only that game. Not a single studio or person can replicate the same results.

There are dozens of renders from years ago which show impressive results, Ranjeesh. You have to actually put effort in and learn it expecting minimal hand holding and megascan asset slopping.
>>1013670
That’s years ago anon, YEARS. Current Cryengine can’t render without adding it into the database to create the results you seen before. It’s not like current game engines that have renders in the database, Cryengine old style of adding stuff into the game engine from scratch is why even those developers cry about the engine being too much.

Cryengine is still very impressive. Crysis 3 is one of few games that actually fully use 8 core CPUs. And they have a very good GI approximation that is very performant.
But considering that amazon bought it then open sourced it yet no one uses it says a lot.
This is because Cryengine is "barebones" in terms of tools, while in unreal you can slop-dev with barely any programming knowledge; You need to be proficient with C++ for Cryengine. And if you could do that you could also just customise unreal 5 for your needs

this, I use ue5 because it is sloppy. I don't want to learn cpp, I had a hard enough time with kotlin, I am not a good programmer, but I want to make things.
The classic UE stutterers are really frustrating, and I have no idea how to get rid of them. but hey I don't have the mind for real programming, I just want to creaaaate
>>1013635
both UE and Cryengine have games that are on both consoles and PC.
UE, being the most common has so much optimization problems PC gamers have to resort to changing/modding in game files for basic framerates how tf do they get away with it?
>>1013849
Not mention node programming which is just AAA scratch is probably the reason why their games are unoptimized as most wouldn't check their source code
