People need to learn that Unreal Engine is not about the gamers, its more about the Devs.

I miss when games had unique look

Without Unreal Engine, most studios wouldn't be able to make games. Do you really think all studios can create their own game engine? Do you have any idea how much money that would require?

"🇵🇸" Opinion invalid.

I will recognize Lost Heaven every fucking time. What a beauty this remake was.

Mate this great is great! The graphics engine is terrific. I don't understand why the fk they switch to unreal engine...

After Witcher 4 u gonna love Unreal Engine 5.

Unreal engine is good. It’s an amazing toolkit of a game engine for developers to build games in that has a full technical staff devoted to guiding developers. It allows devs to focus on what they do best, making games. Not every game developer can also be a tech company with a proprietary engine.

I loved mafia the old country but it was SO blurry on the base ps5 on 60fps, it looked extremely fuzzy, with clear dynamic resolution and up scaling showing through. Mafia the definitive edition looks clean and crispy on PS5, should’ve stuck to their in house engine

Developers are largely switching the Unreal because most developers have experience in it. It’s the default engine right now that everyone knows. It’s about finding more developers without training them on new engines. There’s nothing wrong with Unreal Engine.

Mafia 1 didn't need a remake the og does everything so much better we just needed a HD remaster

DEI devs need Unreal Engine because they're shit at their job and UE makes it easy.

UE5 is great, it was just meant for the PlayStation 7

Game studios need to stop contract hiring and go back to having devs who work and stay at the company. That way we can afford the utilization of proprietary engines. Mafia The Old Country is certainly a return to form but the UE 5 aspect was so unneeded and only caused issues.

I wish they just stuck with this engine , it looks much more better than TOC. Hopefully they move away From Unreal Engine with Mafia 4

I'm so confused, what part of the video was supposed to show Unreal Engine 5 in a poor light? It looks like driving in a lovely open world?

i find that Gears is like the only game that could use Unreal to its fullest.

You aren’t a developer.

You dont, dev teams do

we got this befor GTA 6

OMG how much time I spent driving around in this city back then. One of the very few open world games I’ve actually enjoyed playing. Absolute perfection.

well, performance in Mafia DE is crap. And graphics is... well it's AA title, so visuals are corresponding. Ofc you won't notice that in copressed twitter video, but a lot of textures in this game are garbage. Not defending UE5 , but that's not the game to justify blaming it.

We just need rockstar games owning mafia series And Rage engine showing it's true capability

Mafia 1 one of my fav games of all time 💖

Devs need to learn how to optimize UE5 so it's not just UE5 slop that's blurry as hell and runs at 1440p@40 fps on high-end hardware, depending on DLSS to make it borderline playable.

Or they just need to optimize their games on Unreal Engine

I just finished Old Country and decided to give this a shot because I needed more Mafia. It's great! Highly recommend. Old Country story is better imo, but Definitive Edition plays way better and looks great.

The problem is that the Mafia remake doesn't use DLSS o FSR for play on 4K high fps

Always hated the long strung out drives in these Mafia games man

Casually crashes, Continues to take in the scenery... Love it.

said by a true non dev

Better Unreal Engine that that (Flash Player console equivalent) Unity Engine. It is the reason why we have so many shovelware nowadays. Not to mention how Unity turns the PS4 into a turbine engine. I just slap my forehead when I start a game and it says #MadeWithUnity 🤦♂️

Long live Israel by the way

You do if you want to play a a big chunk of games currently available lol. Don’t hate on UE it’s a existence is a net positive for devs and gamers alike

Yes we do
