Honest question: Would you want Genshin to change their engine?
I STREAM GACHA GAMES EVERY WEEKEND ON TWITCH AT 3PM EST! https://stixy.me/Twitch COME JOIN ME!
I don't think much will happen with genshin or honkai for now. I do think this could mean a delay in ZZZ which is still in development. It is kind of hard to put eggs back in the basket after they've been cracked.
Whether they are affected on the unity issue or not, I still want Genshin to get an Engine upgrade and add some physics in the game that wasn't possible before. Like dynamic animations and conserving momentum to traverse around.
Unity global and Unity China are different companies so yes chinese gachas wont be affected as long as they use the chinese unity engine. They separated global and china some time last year
Well i guess genshin be dead for mobile now .
There is no way mihoyo gona make a engine and it will work well on mobile.
Maybe they can do something about pc and console .
Where can I find that clickbait art yae miko
I think there was fan video of making remodel Genshin with Unreal Engine before. It's really beautiful.
Probably a hacked/pirated version of Unity since it is a Chinese game.
No way they can just change engines like that. It would be equivalent to developing a whole new game. This is probably for a project that is years down the line.
i hope they do
and they never go back to unity f em
If the latest I read is true, Unity will be going to a flat fee of… 3%, I think. Which is less than Unreal's 5%. So I think the drama will die down… for now. At least it won't be hitting the small studios so hard. But still, Unity has broken trust that won't be repaired any time soon. We may not see the mass exodus that would have happened without change, but many games will still be transitioning to a new engine.
Gatcha games are free, already wont be able to qualify any good lawyer can make argument, that gatcha money come from ads and store, wich dont sell videogames or install product, so no, also unity is hurting money because buying companys i beleive they are not going to go to court, with Hoyo, also when you read the TOS , no judge will give unity rigth altering a contract and charge for retroactive contracts wich are no longer existing no, gatcha games will be fine, unity is the one shoot in the face with a shoot gun
In the new stream they said they will further optimise the game so it's not as heavy as Fontaine was. So maybe the new hires are for that.
Modifed engines is nothing new in the game industry. You cant expect a company to make everything you need so companies hire people who can do said modifications you need. Thats all this could be. Some already said they do this, and they just wanna do more so theyre hiring more. It depends on the agreements between the companies. Unreal engine allows it where you can submit your modified/newly created parts and theyl review it and credit you if they decide to use it, though i assume bigger companies dont have to share it.
Honestly this is probably to do with Honkai impact 3rd they announced months ago that they were overhauling the engine for Honkai impact 3rd
Guess being a Chinese copycat comes in handy at a time like this. Learn, duplicate then make their own version of a similar existing product.
It's becoming a pattern western entertainment companies either screwed up or make bad decisions to sell oit that consumers hates then chinese companies comes to the rescue to revive the lost media.
They are using a heavily modified version of Unity. When you purchase the pro or the other tier licenses except personal version, you have access to the source code of Unity. Another thing is that, they are using the Build in renderer pipeline version, which is the first base Unity version, which isn’t as optimized as the Universal renderer pipeline that I use, and the High definition renderer pipeline version. So getting access to the source code to optimize it yourself and add the other stuff to it, like how they rewrote the entire graphics library for the PlayStation version is a really good idea
It is most likely for HI3 because they already announced the revamp of the game.. also unity cn is very different than the global and theyre not gonna affected by it.
@Stixxy Hoyoverse is so rich they can overthrow unity engine by buying it if they want😂
This won’t take effect in 2-3 years, at least not before Genshin chapter 2.
i hope its next year because im gonna buy a ps5 early 2024
I was the 450th like 🗿
