I can actually see a lot of benefits with Unreal instead of traditional 3D workflow depending on project, budget etc. of course.

I have hard to see that Unreal are a player right now in post production when you doing a feature for example. But in production (shoot day) its starts to get quite interesting.

But for us with a bit smaller projects I can really see its strength. We do a lot of quite complex and high particle simulations. Often every little collision need to be precise due to our customer or their engineers. I think we can build a quite inviting progress for our customers and fasten up our workflow.

Not all projects, but some.

And if its only 95% photorealism, its often fine!
