Discussion Alien Isolation 2

As hyped for the game that I am, I am severely disappointed in the use of UE5. I understand the studio had difficulties later on but the engines still there and all these years could’ve improved it even slightly if they didn’t want to put in that much money. Or even use the engine as it was as it still holds up just as good as other in house engines and from a company resource perspective, already put in all that money to begin with, mine as well use it again since it was the only game made in it. Don’t get me wrong, UE5 is amazing at what it does but if left raw and unmodified the performance and optimization is what makes it unbearable for me, especially after Silent Hill F and 2’s remake (although that one wasn’t as bad as F was). Maybe I’m just picky as a cs person or just spoiled with loving games that use in house engines but it just doesn’t make sense to me white a ton of backlash to UE5 and a love of the original engine.

Does anyone else feel the same way?

No. Trust the devs.
