I like that the new roadmap is concise and predictable, although it does hide current problems and wishlist items to some extent. I’m still a UE noob, but I have been evaluating the engines for a couple years now in terms of the company producing the engine and how they handle feedback and how they treat their customers and their pace of development.
In regard, I chose UE because it wins hands down. My only is that I’ve seen many companies with good product incur technical debt to the detriment of users over time. When technical debt is not kept under control more and more features start getting wonky or unusable. I’m not deep enough into UE yet to see that is starting to creep up in and I think it’s natural to introduce more features with bugs that are difficult to track down.
Not that technical debt has much to do with the roadmap, but it does seem to potentially mask some problems. At any rate, cleaner and more predictable is also nice when you want to be sure that X is on the table.
