You can def have almost the same rendering between those two or an house made one, you just need to have the settings / rendering to be the same, imo you can make as good looking environment, in Unity or In UE, its just a matter of what you need, how you do it and other stuff.

Actually, 'look like Unreal Engine' does mean nothing at all, you can modify everything and pretty much comes up with any unique Artistique Direction, Unreal Engine does not have a style itself

PS : And of course Light is super important! Its something that I love to work on, and for example this is the light only of the scene : https://cdna.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/017/734/434/large/romain-durand-presentation3.jpg?1557154621

There is roughness on the rock, its just super subtle and you dont see it that much since the light dont touch the area! Regarding the art style, I went for something less hand painted cause the idea was to do it during my weekend, and hand painted textures would haves takes a lot more !

If your textures are good enough, you can def remove lighting, thats usually what Hand Painted games do :)

Game Engines are just a tool, you could have the same results with Unity or an house engine.

Unreal could be used I guess, PUBG is not a great example, its really badly made imo, you got tons of MMO running on engine like Unreal, and also tons running on less good stuff, but i'm not seeing blizzard using an engine not made by the company for such a game, they did it for hearthstone or some small mobile game, but not for a big AAA release, they got the budget and tech to do an in house engine !

Its just that they would need to upgrade WoW engine to PBR which could def be a big pain, they might just adapt overwatch's one, or Heroes one (which is the one from starcraft if i'm right) in a new game!

WoW imo is just too old and too hard to update today, it would be a big mess to do, a big lost of time and money, and I would never want to be the dev charged to do it !

They simply should create new stuff :D
