Godot already exists, this smells like a grift just because they're yelling 'EU'
More possible engines to use are better. I love Godot but unreal is better for other things. Different tools make for different solutions and we get more variety that way.
Edit: im not saying it couldn’t be a grift, just that it’s nice to have more competitive options than just godot/unity/unreal/rolling your own.
OK, so CryEngine and it's open source descendant O3DE already exists
“If you are smart and know how to put a good framework of AI agents to work, you can do the work of ten or fifteen people,” he added.
Developing it with AI agents not only makes it less secure, but also makes the sought European label highly suspect.
Sloppity slop
“No one is currently making an engine that is fully European-hosted,
What is 'European-hosted' even supposed to mean in the context of a 3d engine? Are we pretending they are all hardcoded to be online-only and running most relevant things server-side?
built by Europeans,
Why does that matter specifically for a 3d engine? Security concerns, because for some unexplained reason we need 3D simulations in Defense or logistics? Worries about backdoors in the network layer turning machines into a botnet?
Whatever it is, it does not matter for any of those who built it originally, the only thing that matters is who controls it. And if you want real full control, there is always Godot; open source with a permissive license. The choice between that and some closed source thing someone cobbled together alone with vibe coding should be pretty obvious.
and complies with European rules and guidelines,”
What rules and guidelines could you possibly violate on the engine level?
Wtf and godot ?
Meh.
Stride exists. Open3D is also available. I'd also rather deal with "the most powerful game engine in the world"
Why ai image though?? :( imagine using a perfectly fine photo stock from photographers
Isnt cryengine from Europe? Not sure what their licencing is but I seem to remember there being non crytek games in cryengine
I like the sound of this and the teams behind it!! Looking forward to this
Edit: Read it and whoa never mind it will have AI
Am I getting paranoid or does this look like an AI image?
Doesn't look it to me. Even though they're blurry, the toolbar icons on both monitors are spot on identical.
Good point.
Her left hand (background) looks a bit wonky tho. The coffee cup shadow also looks much longer than her right hand or the monitors' shadows.
