>>Unity

>>"games"

Unity revived a dead language C# (mono) and horrible scripting with Javascript (Unityscript)

Microsoft dumped C# because it failed at making it base for next Windows, now Unity is moving more and more of it into the base (horrible idea)

Unity is also responsible for 99% of TRASH GAMES on Steam

Engine is horribly optimized and has bugs you cant fix(especially when it crashes a lot), and so closed you have to pay 100k to get access to the internal code

Other than that i guess it depends on you and what you are doing to make something good out of it

Unity is a good engine but 90% of the people who use it have no idea what they're doing. It also got a really bad reputation because of no brain niggers like Jim Sterling who make the engine responsible for all the garbage games that use it.

>Implying they're especially autistic

They're just retards parroting shit for vanity (You)'s. If any of them had started the 'act unreasonably upset about <engine in question>' meme maybe they would qualify, we'll know if one of them cares about the record of their historical participation in whining about Unity enough to dispute this. Odds are better it's just 'tards.

>when you have manlet rage about Unity when it's a DOS game being ported over and it is already vastly more modern as a result despite any flaws of Unity vs other modern engines

>C# is dead

You really aren't doing the ignorant cadre of "engine haters" who know nothing about programming but really wish they did any favors with ridiculous statements like this one. You may as well pick up a megaphone and yell "I have no idea what I am saying."

Both OpenMW and DFUnity are the fastest and most stable ways to play the game. Even if you take all of DFUnity's flaws into consideration, let's stop for a moment and see what you are missing when you play Daggerfall on DOS.

>mousewheel scrolling in the UI

>modern resolutions

>fonts that actually render to that resolution and look good

>literally instantaneous load times with no transition

>being able to put gold on your wagon

>4-way wall climbing (disable-able if you are a purist)

>every time you check the skill screen it now tells you which ones increased since you last checked

>mods pouring out of my ass, the sourceport is pre-alpha and there are already content mods

Sure, there are flaws, but I'm convinced anyone shitting on DFUnity is simply a lazy faggot that hasn't actually tried it, despite it being freely available. It's like switching from using a hand drill to a power drill; sure you could come up with a few gripes but they aren't worth mentioning because the improvements are so blatantly obvious and useful that you are going to use it regardless.

Baby man.

The reason for that is because it is so readily available, tons of shitters will use it. I'm not going to lie and say that Unity is more optimized than writing an engine in C++ for the platform you intend to release it on, but on the other hand Daggerfall isn't exactly a demanding game to run. No multiplayer or netcode to worry about, no demanding graphics nor memory usage.

>No multiplayer or netcode to worry about

Though I think someone is trying to make a mod for that.

>>16392450

You can play it for half an hour and see everything there is to because the whole map is just a copy paste.

This looks fucking fun and when I think it's ready I will probably dump a thousand hours into it. Right now though I think I'll wait until at least all the original features are done, because odds are when I get done playing it I will NEVER touch it again.

>>16395992

I wouldn't be so sure of that since the game is going to have a modding scene now.

>>16390059

Faggot.

>>16396250

Any mods that don't come out during my initial stint with the game probably won't be enough to motivate me back into it, but mods are already considered into that "thousand hours" thing.

>>16396334

Well there's already shit like randomly selected events that populate the empty space between dungeons and towns. I'm really looking forward to see what folks come up with.

>>16389713

the problem is with the lazy game dev, not the engine

>>16396531

>randomly selected events that populate the empty space between dungeons and towns

Where'd you find that? I thought I looked at every single mod.

>>16392450

morrowind is more boring than Daggerfall.

Morrowind lacks things like scheduals, mounts, indepth factions and random civilians, and color although there are mods that fix it, but it will still lack the magic and wonder that Daggerfall had

Maybe if the game was bigger, more role playing elements, weapons and not look like the taste of baked potato with soy sauce, it's inferior than Daggerfall
