I share some thoughts on why you should NOT use the Godot Engine.
Question: I just watched your video about switching to the Godot Engine and I was curious if you have any reasons why you wouldn’t use it?
Will be doing more of these QA videos and would love to hear from you! If you have a question about game development, solo development, Godot, life, anything…drop it down below in the comments to have it included in a future video.

They're just tools everyone.
I dont wanna use a woke engine at all. Rather I dont make games at all
I think Godot is the best start for beginners. At least for me who is new to game development. Tried Unity but I think Godot was simpler. Still powerful enough to make good and advanced things.
apparently youtube thinks this is what i want to see while trying to find godot tutorials
(terraria and the team that made terraria)
You seem like a cool guy, StayatHome.
I agree a lot with the sentiment of the message, BUT there is a thing such as limited time, and wielding a different hammer requieres a lot time and effort than learning a while different game engin with it's capabilities and particularities, nooks and crannies and what not…
I myself, am 41 years old, been learning different game engines and though I don't plan on looking for a studio job, since I dont want at the moment to do 2D, i prefer Unity, it is lighter than Unreal, and i might be able to do 2D in the future, and wouldn't need to learn everything feom scratch…
For me it is:
Indie 2D: Godot then Unity
Indie 3D: Unity then UE
Studio Job: 2D? Unity. 3D: Unity or UE depending on type of game market you aim at.
Unity errs on my laptop.
Why? Because it's WOKE, GAY, HOMO and run by radically far left wing neo-marxists.
Use Redot, an non-woke, neutrally political fork instead
I'll take a shot everytime he says Unity.
clickbait
I disagree with "bad company" agenda people throw at Unity because same is applicable for Godot Foundation and Juan as well. Juan has his own bias and so does the Godot Foundation. They can also do things that you will dislike in the long term. So there is no engine which is independent of politics. Just pick the one which can make you earn money faster and has less time to market. Unity wins in that regard. Unreal is just too much for a solo dev.
WE WAITED TO NANITE AND LUMEN TECHNOLOGY EMBED INTO GODOT
Maybe it's just the way I handle things but I found a turn-based RPG with cutscene-like attack animations much easier to do with Godot's scene system.
click bait
unity is x100000 better than godot
Haha the only game engine available mobile is being hated on 👏🏻👏🏻
4:21 The only thing is that learning how to use another hammer takes 2 seconds. Learning how to use different engine with different programming languages – months. Those are not comparable in a slightest.
they ask for everyone money and they give it to Gays LOL .. instead of improving their engine and fixing bugs
I'd highly recommend you look into flax engine.
I've used Unity for years and recently switched to Godot over the debacle. My first attempt at an engine was in Managed Direct X. Microsoft discontinued that. So I moved to XNA. That got discontinued. I went to C++ and DX but I couldn't keep up with the industry so I went with Unity. We know what happened last year. I made the move to Godot open source and even though they had a meltdown, I'm not really affected. Open source seems to be the safest bet. I've even found things about Godot that I like better than Unity including rotatable light probes and non static navigation meshes (though I think you can do this now in unity). I'm happy for the change and not looking back.
if an iPad version of Redot is made then I will switch LOL
The godot engine will not develop anymore. The developer has neglected the engine since version 4.0, and his interest in political matters has become greater, especially vile and dirty matters
For indie game developers Godot is the low cost solution when you don't have capital to back your project
Because it's woke and will turn your penis inside out into a transvagina. Use Redot instead
is it hard to make android or ios games in godot without android studio
GoDot sucks… buggy, slow, open sores 😛
I thought i would switch from Unity to Godot, Godot is awful, change one line of code and the whole thing crashes…back to unity i go
Can we all agree on a pronunciation for this silly engine?
I thought he was gonna talking about Godot
Keep an open mind and try out something new once in a while 🫶 I would have gone with unity simply because "it's the industry standard", but now I'm happy I tried both Godot and Unity just to be sure. Personally, godot is a cozy and welcoming environment for newbies (just like me back then), while also being just a great multitool for so many things even beyond game dev!
gahdo engine
the sudden hate on godot is crazy
i am actually a lifelong unity hater because everything about it sucks
To be honest not finding a gamedev industry job becuase of godot IS a good reason to use godot engine: maybe this way the devs will realize and go to write brainrotten CRUD enterprise B2B software with less crunch and higher salary.
Godot = woke trash
"Every tool is a hammer." -Adam Savage
I'll probably just stick with codeblocks n such
You should not use it because the people managing it are tools.
So for beginners and small projects : Godot
Professional and big projects : Unity n Unreal Eng.
I like the look of Godot for 3D games, the way it handles lighting and shaders is really nice and well made. My issue with unreal engine is the bloat and high barrier of entry regarding making a good looking game, with Godot I can make a photorealistic scene with PBR materials and dynamic lighting and get it running at a good frame rate on 10 year old budget hardware where as the same scene would look terrible at the lowest settings in unreal engine on the same computer if unreal could even run on that 10 year old pc at all.
This guy bout' to get banned on Godot servers for promoting such anti-queer homophobia (aka valid criticism towards Godot as a game engine)
Remember when everyone says to use Godot Engine when Unity announced paying for installation? Good times…
Obviously Godot doesn't bring anything unique. And is not the only option out there. Probably just was hyped by the Hyper Loop Elon Mask guy. And the language it uses is just too weak and isolated (does the C# gets out of beta? I am doubt that). So there are better engines worth our attention, but there is no one to make them popular + they might have no Editor yet (like Bevy engine).
