Have anyone else noticed that UE 5 is significantly harder to run than other game engines in the current generation. Every game that uses UE 5 is hard to run and the visuals doesn’t look worth the performance hit. Games from other engines and Games uses UE 4 is so much better.
Just take a look at S.T.A.L.K.E.R, yes they might be qble to optimise it more but even games less buggy if it’s UE 5 it’s hard to run. I play a LOT of AA games that uses UE 4 and all of them hits 100+ fps without breaking a sweat while still looking beautiful. It’s crazy.
Why do you think this is? Also while you’re commenting, drop the best performing 9th gen game you’ve played too!
I heard from a game dev that UE isn’t an engine, but a framework. That means it doesn’t give you optimized, opinionated code, but gives you more “freedom” - yet forces each dev team to optimise by themselves.

3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Which they either don’t or do poorly.
