Game Devs, Is UE5 actually worth the switch?

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

Hey All;

I’ve been working in 4 and 5. I keep coming up against these brick walls in 5 where Epic decided that if it can’t work with nanite or lumens then they gutted the feature out. Sadly this means a MASSIVE amount of my tools and techniques are just gone. BUT I also know there are growing and learning pains to just get through.

My main question is are you all finding it better or worse to Jump into UE5 as it currently stands for game projects?

My next project is a VR one so I am curious on that issue as well.
Thanks so much for any time and advice.

If your next project is VR, then stick with 4. :slight_smile:

Unless you’re making it for people with a helium cooled VR rig, better to stay with 4.
