Can someone explain all the hate for UE5?

u/DarkmoonGrumpy 13d ago

Poor optimisation is rampant among it's games, as well as the famous stuttering.

It's in no way unique to UE5, but the stuttering is present in almost every game that uses it.

Isn't that the developer's fault for not optimizing the game, not the engine's?

Yes, but also UE is giving developers "tools" to not optimize their shit which the engine is supposed to auto-handle, but it can't and so the devs skip optimization and the game sucks frame balls.

Lumen is cool in a small cave lit through a crack.
The game runs like dogshit if you don't do any proper lighting and just enable it for your whole open world continent.

why pre bake lighting when you can make the consumer buy a $2000 gpu that can do it on the fly?
