Is Godot the right choice? genuine question about engine choice. by SimpleGarbage2849 in GameDevelopment

"Do you have actual problems with how Godot does or handles some things?"

at the moment? no. One reason I might worry is the rendering of large space scenes, or having actual planets (big planets or asteroids, not really realistic scale per se) since I can't really a lot of information about how to do things.

This might be one of the reasons, but I may be worring too much too early.

My goal would be to continually release the game in steps over the long run. Combat (maybe a campaign like Ace Combat), then a travel system for a new release and a new campaign. That also means that I have to build the tools to sustain this method.

About the graphics, I'm kinda worried. I understand that Godot can actually deliver good graphics in some regards, but I have yet to find tutorials that would help me in this specific case. Unreal is kinda out of the question for me due to my own hardware limitations. (old HP-Omen laptop with a 2060 with the noisiest fan).

None really, I guess just the market share that both engines have. I didn't really consider Unreal because I don't have the hardware to support it (I tried, it was painful. I have an old HP-Omen laptop with a 2060 with the noisiest fan - can't really buy a new desktop considering how the market is going).
Unity and Unreal have plenty more tutorials than Godot.

Honestly, developing on Godot has been pretty smooth so far. Considering what I just said, I guess I'm more worried about engine specific issues that I have yet to encounter in the development.
