Why is Unity the most popular engine?

This would indeed be amazing. I was scared off c++ in UE4 by seeing a couple of people brick their project when building.

On topic, Unity has lower system requirements as well as no “waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait for light to build” situations. And it’s very difficult to brick the whole project so that it doesn’t open. The opposite is unfortunately true for UE4.

I’ve haven’t heard of that happening with C++, just launch the Editor from Visual Studio and you can debug it.

Unity might open, but all the script components will be gone from everything, with no clue how to reattach everything. Happens regularly when working on a team project in it, even with Perforce managing it, it’s a complete pain for developing as a team.

It runs on older hardware, because it’s an older engine. Compare it to UE3 for last gen stuff.
