Two things: the Adobe Creative Cloud (which I hate but am totally dependent on) and better support for FreeSync with more than one display. Even with a 7900XT, which gets open-source drivers, graphics stuff is just easier on Windows.

Not OP but one benefit to 8K is that it evenly scales into not only 1080p and 4K, but also 1440p and several other resolutions. So although 8K content doesn't really exist, if you game a lot at 1440p, it can look cleaner than a 4K TV

The engine is definitely capable of allowing you to build something like that. It will take you time to learn the ins and outs of Godot, but I definitely think a project like that is feasible.

One thing I have learned using Godot for our project (a split-screen multiplayer arena FPS, think Halo 1 + Unreal Tournament) for the better part of a year is that the engine can really do just about anything you want it to. The issue always comes down to how you choose to implement your functionality. If you go out there where no dev has gone before, you will have to bang your head against the wall a LOT until you figure out how to solve your issues. That's not a bad thing, as your solutions are often unique and inventive as a result. But you have to be willing to do the struggle yourself.

TL,DR: The engine is very capable on a technical level, and GDScript is fairly easy to work with, but if you're looking for a perfectly smooth gamedev experience with lots of documentation, it may not be the best choice.

DUDE, awesome. I used to love the Zylann HTerrain plugin back in 3.x, and this looks like that but even BETTER!

Oh wow. I actually owned one of those things back in 2011.

Don't believe it was ever updated past Android 2.3. You can use custom firmware / ROMs to get it up to Android 4.x, but at the end of the day it's a 12 year old smartphone with a single-core processor. You may be able to stick some old APKs on their and emulate NES/SNES/GBA, but any even remotely modern Android game would absolutely melt that thing, if it ran at all.

They all have such predicable names too:

War of Heroes: King Battle

The Great City: Global War

Arena of Warriors: Fire Multiplayer

I just made all three of those up, but I bet you there are games with names similar or even identical to that on the Play Store right now

Does not run well on my 7900XT. Framerate is fairly low, only FSR 1.0 offered for upscaling
