Blueprint Visual Scripting Eases Prototyping but Engine Complexity Slows Workflow
Overall, Unreal Engine has been a powerful but sometimes demanding tool in our workflow, and we appreciate the visual fidelity real time lighting and the lighting and the depth of the editor tools, which let us build high-quality scenes and interactive experiences when we invest the effort. At the same time, the engine’s complexity, long compile times, and relatively heavy system requirements can slow down iteration, especially for smaller teams. It has paid off for more ambitious 3D work, but it's not always the most lightweight option for quick experiments
