Quoting: pbWhat's wrong with the engine? I have it, but haven't started playing yet, so now I wonder if I should. ;p
There's nothing "wrong" with the engine, they're upgrading to a newer version of Unreal Engine (5.5.4 ?). This will extend the range of the sight bubble for one thing, so that binoculars can be introduced and to help with immersion. The game is fantastic right now (bugfixes aside), so get stuck in!

I love the look of this, will check it out. I like the animation of the moving castles, very nicely done. Looks fun!

Something else... someone knocks out "their" game at the click of a button, tries to sell it and then the consumer comes back with a bug report - "crickets/tumbleweed".

Unless I'm being silly and don't realise these games will be created perfectly coded 🤔

The greed of those who already have more wealth than you or I could imagine is insatiable. And it's you and I that will suffer. It's both sad and maddening at the same time.

Here's to the big bang...
