Why doesn't B Society change to Unreal 5: It's a pity to give up after years of hard work on its own engine

B Society has always insisted on using its own Creation engine.Although the engine has improved in Stars, many players think it is outdated and should give up and switch to Unreal 5.However, Dan Nanni, the former head of the studio, believes that this is not easy. B.C. has devoted many years of hard work to the Creation engine and will not give up so easily.

Recently, Dan Nanni was interviewed by foreign media VideoGamer, and he said that it is not easy to transfer from one engine to another.Given the depth of the B-Social Game, it needs to be refactored extensively, because Unreal 5 engine cannot provide you with ready-made solutions to all problems.

"If you want to give up your own engine and start the stove again, it means to start over. Unreal 5 doesn't offer you everything ready to go, you have to build it yourself. If you use Unreal 'Golden Path' to develop games, there is a dedicated team that supports you. But when you develop a specific type of game in a specific way, it means you have to make fundamental changes - essentially you've deviated from the Golden Path."

Nanni believes that engine development is often iterative, and new features are usually built on old foundations.When the studio decides to give up one engine and use a new one, it means years of hard work will be wasted.So B Society is also hesitating whether to give up the efforts made on the Creation engine.

But Nanni also admits that replacing a new engine is inevitable because "an engine is like an organism that will eventually age and die. When the code base you build has been around for decades and is full of loopholes, you will eventually abandon it."
