POV: Saylam is about to hit you with a dump of mecha metaphors

(Granted my overwhelming main reason is I’m a Source engine sucker and this is the closest I can get without being trapped in Valve’s ecosystem… and while working in a BSP format does have perf benefits, it does make maps blocky and larger Q3 maps tend to be at most ~3^3 km big w/ 1 unit = 1 in)

While it is *very* much set up for first person (though third person games and racing sims have been made in idTech engines), it comes with a command line tool for debugging, many SDKs have a barebones template to get started with... and my Source Engine poisoned noggin finds it familiar in a way

Notably, Epic actually develops games on Unreal while Unity and the Godot group *haven't*

as such, clearly the best choice is idtech
