Yeah an ex Virtuos developer said they had been working on a remake in UE5 for Bethesda. Can’t find the reference but it was a big rumour a while ago.

not a huge fan of UE5* but it has to be better than the spaghetti that is CE2 at this point.

*-The engine itself isn't the problem developers just don't optimize shit because they aren't given the time/derective to.

The same can be said for CE2.

While the Creation Engine can be limited, the issue with Bethesda games is not the engine, but their development and direction

Have you seen what the recent UE5 games play like? Not even frame generation can make them run smoothly.

I honestly prefer creation.

I think Avowed is the smoothest (strictly comparative) game on UE5 I've played in a long time. I get 120fps locked on epic and no shader compilation stutters (1440p, 7900XTX and 7800X3D) outside of cities. As soon as I enter a city and move my camera/character, it dips to 50fps with my GPU barely being used and CPU spiking, which really doesn't make much sense to me considering the aren't a lot of NPCs in town and they don't move/have routines
