Have you ever found yourself deciding against a game you would otherwise check out because of what game engine it uses?

    Honestly, yes.

    Aside from performance issues, UE5 based-games by majority seem to follow this washed out color palette approach that I don’t like. Its not inherently the engine though as I know Expedition 33 used UE5 and its very vibrant. Its just an artistic direction those games seem to take, I guess.

    In the past, CryEngine due to performance. Kingdom Come: Deliverance on release really was buggy and felt like a typical CryEngine game. I can’t for sure say that it was the engine’s fault again because Prey didn’t seem to have those issues, but historically that engine has always been a mess.
