Totally agree… I know the asset store in Unity for quite some time and you will barely find anything useful in there. Most of it is straight out ****, sorry. I am only doing this for hobby too, and its useless for me already, which is kinda sad. Its the same for most other sites too, like TurboSquid or Daz3D. But they at least give you search feature to find high quality content as well. Otherwise I don’t see the point in doing a Unity asset store for UE4. You shouldn’t use UE4 if any of the 90% of stuffs in the Unity asset store is of any value to you ;). It makes no sense. UE4 is awesome, but its also a very high-end engine, despite its much better accessibility than UDK. I hated UDK, so thats where I come from and I love UE4. Please no such asset store for UE4.
BUT BUT: It would be cool to get more of those great assets that are already there from Epic Games or any other major studio could release sneak peaks of their game content to the public. Like an animated batman or catwomen from Arkham City etc. I think those would sell like hell. I would definitely pay 100 EUR or more for such assets and I just use them for hobby pleasure ;).
Yeah thats basically what I want to see… Big games studio releasing some of their epic stuff in the market place (preferably free yes, but you know the world we live in… free xD). Besides that the community could build some OpenSource stuff around the engine.
I really think Epic Games has set the initial tone of the Marketplace with their high quality assets and they would do good at either only letting established artists and studio publish there or at least do a good review and zensorship to establishe a high-quality asset store.
