    Valorant is doing OW2 PvE. They're literally just copying the idea and getting ready to cash in 😅
    The fact that Tryndamere wrote a tweet saying "Success isnt about throwing more people or money at a challenge. We've seen small teams at Riot (and elsewhere) build incredible things, while large teams (both at Riot and elsewhere) miss the mark", which is pretty much exactly what Jeff told Bobby about making the OW-team larger, makes it even more suspicious.
    Pair that with the fact that Jeff havn't been seen for 2 years and most likely had a 1,5 year non-compete.
    If Jeff Kaplan suddenly shows up in the staff roll over at Riot you know whats gonna happen.

    1:40 Warcraft 3... One of the best games in existence. It was a great gameplay experience and had so much character! There were easter eggs all over, hidden treasure that rewards you for exploring obscure parts of the map and/or exploring creatively, unique serious voice lines for each unit AND goofy ones that occur if you click them a few times in succession and plenty more! I fear that there won't be many more games like this though, since a complete game that has everything you want/need, doesn't encourage spending more money on that same property. Reforged was a joke (and that I may or may not have pirated and played anyways because I love the game so much), not only because you could BARELY even call it a remaster, much less a remake, but also because despite it's glitchiness, it's tendancy to crash *often* , despite it being graphically, almost the same as the original that came out over a decade before, it also REPLACED the original game if you bought it through Blizzard, losing your access to the good version... that company man 😅
    Anyways, tldr: WARCRAFT III MENTIONED!!!!

    I can understand the appeal of custom engines in some respects. Licensing fee savings and control over your own development can be beneficial. Onboarding and increased initial investment are huge costs though. Given the heavy support Unreal receives, it makes a lot of sense to use it. Easily transferring assets is a huge savings.

      They were already on Unreal Engine, just version 4 instead of 5.
      To clarify, for new games they'd need to hire new people regardless of the engine. League and Valorant are ongoing games, so moving devs over to a new project isn't that easy.
      In the case of Valorant, if they initially decided to create an in-house engine again they'd still need new staff to do this.
      They wouldn't bring over devs from League as that engine is completely useless for FPS.

    @ultr0shot440 21 годину тому

    After CDPR went over to unreal I started doubting studios moving over to it for pure gameplay reasons. CDPR has an engine that can compete with unreal (it works beautifully for cyberpunk, they just had to sort out the bugs like any other game has to. Now it looks AMAZING).
    Here's the thing, according to another polish dev (the kingdom come studio if I remember correctly) the studio lost all their key talent and they're now moving over to UE5 because every quota they hired can't use it and the experienced devs were chased away (likely due to political agendas).
    Even ubisoft outsources A LOT for EVERY SINGLE GAME they make these days because they devs they hire are incompetent, but fill a quota slot.
    So MAYBE riot are doing this for gameplay reasons... but tencent are also the guys who are currently hiring all the incompetent devs over at ubisoft, so I'm guessing they've been doing it at riot too... so this scares me.
    If they're moving over to UE5 I'm scared of the talent they've hired these last few years and how they survived all the firings when so many experienced devs have been let go.
