As an old disillusioned fan, I hope something good comes out of it.
The UE5 move had been telegraphed for a while from job postings, but I didn’t expect the rebrand.
Feeling cautiously optimistic, but I still think they have the major hurdle of working with Microsoft’s contractor policies.
Yeah, was all but confirmed till now. But as you say the rebrand was unexpected.
I still think the contractors is bad but at least they’ll be working on a familiar engine instead of having to learn a brand new one for the first however many weeks/months
I feel like the switching of engines is ‘treating the problem’ of hiring contractors instead of fixing the problem and keeping there engine. If they just kept there workers I really do believe it would be better in the long run. How is it that Xbox/Microsoft cant keep an in house team for one of there biggest IP to have a engine for it? I knew the switch was coming from leaks but I actually didn’t want it to be true.
I was hoping Infinite would move to Creation Engine lol That would be hilarious
That’s the funniest thing that’s still possible.
Damn now I really wish they would, but I’m guessing not even Bethesda will be using Creation past there next game.
Have they significantly restructured the studio? I hear they got new leadership. Maybe it won’t hurt to be optimistic this time.
