Sorry to hear that lol maybe you can branch out and do other content on a different channel while still doing Hytale videos on your current one

@@OhRisk i started of as a minecraft and hytale channel but my passion for hytale is just very high so I went to full on Hytale BEFORE the delay (on 2022) 😭 I do have full faith on the Hytale team, and after all we will play one day and I will be happy making content about Hytale everyday..

same now 17

me too bro im turning 17 in 19th of july

I was 21 when the game trailer's out

I'm 22 and I really want to try this game when it comes out

Real

So we half agree I wouldn't think that the lack of post release updates is a bad thing because the community can just make mods for the game to basically provide the updates that the teams wouldn't be doing because of the engine rewrite. Still the new engine should have been a post-launch focus, Fortnite and CS2 did the same thing and have been well received (for the most part, not with CS2 though). And a mobile launch would be better too after launch because people would already have a game to play. They can use the actual launch of the game to gather additional funding from the players who bought Hytale or bought cosmetics if the game is free to play (hope it's not though). Having a mobile launch and a console launch at release just eats up more resources and time, but it is true that they are getting ahead of what they have to inevitably do in the future which is release on mobile and consoles.

@@OhRisk Definitely should not be a post launch focus, Fortnite and CS are already established games with an established playerbase making them money and the games work already, the engine switch is moreso an afterthought to get a bigger player base and better performance. Switching to a brand new engine for Hytale immediately post launch would be idiotic at best. Working on the new engine in C++ instead of Java means a far far better performance on all machines and lets them use already established frameworks that have been tested rigorously to gain even more performance, like FLECS, which they talked about in their newest technical blog post. It certainly does not eat up more resources and time considering how early their switch to the new engine has been made. They would have had to wait a few years before making the switch as you say or the game would be a flop, because it would only be a minecraft clone in the eyes of the people with performance just as bad as minecraft. The change to C++ from Java is a huge plus, that you simply don't understand, Java is pretty bad. I was skeptical of the console and mobile releases and thought same as you. But the only difference in that would be the fact that they have to make it compatible controllers and a touch screen. Which is a pretty minimal thing to do, compared to making whole new versions of the game for other machines. C++ is multi platform, far less work required to have it run on other machines, unlike Java. C++ allows them to make a better game, in every way. They tried to make a ECS from ground up, while in C++ they used an established ECS called FLECS. A lot of software engineers loathe java and clown on it on social media for good reasons. They are saving both money and time by this. And they have hired a lot more people to work on the game ^^ a lot of talented people.

^^ What this man said but in simplified terms C++ is a more barebones programming language (it takes more time to allocate system resources etc.) therefor it would perform better at worse devices Java is way slower with less options for system resource allocation but in turn it would be easier to understand, work on, develop on If you still dont understand what im saying Imagine your making pancakes and C++ is your recipe book with flour eggs milk and whatever else you need to make pancakes and when your finished it would taste delicous Now imagine you have a premade mixture and you only put water now thats Java the instructions are easier to understand just put water and aswell as easier to do rather than a whole recipe book the downside being that it wouldnt taste that great

Yeah obviously it takes time and resources, but they could have just released the game on the old engine, actually delivered a game, get more resources and funding from fans buying the game then work on the new engine while having another team working on the current game. Maybe there wouldn't need to be as much work on the current game on release as the community could improve the game and make mods for it which leaves the devs with time to work freely on the new engine. My point in the video was that completely redoing the engine from the ground up mid development just seems like a waste of time and resources. Mobile and console releases shouldn't be a priority at launch, they should be a post-launch change that they should work towards including the engine rework.

You have no idea how disappointing that would be. Why the hell would they release a half assed game with the old engine? It will only get a bad reputation, they want a good experience from the start.

@@OhRiskwho in their right mind would do that? It’s better to start over when you’re only half way in rather than finishing something you already know will have to get redone in the future. Which will take several more years and leave the original game dead since no development resources would be allocated to it. Switching engines isn’t as easy as “just doing it”. They know what they’re doing.

disagree, if they dont plan to support it while in early development, itll cause massive headaches to support later on. Just look at minecraft bedrock port. Imagine if minecraft java and bedrock weren't separated

classic game

Yeah I don't usually do commentary videos consistently, I just stream and do stream highlights

I didn't know Valorant was made in Unreal Engine 4, that's news to me as I just searched it up. That's interesting.

Actually most of the assets (blocks, mobs, animations, sounds) are easy to port. But the developers changed ECS system and scripting language (rumoured to be Lua), which completely changes the engine architecture, so it will take longer to port, but they have already ported quite a lot (John said that Hytale on the new engine looks like on the old engine).

are you saying that hytale will take 6 more year to release?

@@SkyeReim no?

Thats valid

It depends which version of iOS. I think you're talking about iPadOS. On Mac, you can download iPadOS apps that are and aren't verified for iPadOS, however you can't download iPhone apps to Mac. So if they make the game, they should port it to Mac first and do a test on iPad afterwards before getting close to iOS.

Pretty sure that’s why they’re changing the engine/code. They mentioned they want more platforms and cross compatibility

@@JoeBurner1720 That is one of the reasons, on their most recent blog post they stated: "There were many reasons for making this change: we wanted to ensure we could release the game across multiple platforms; we wanted to improve our performance when targeting lower-spec devices; and we wanted to build a core engine that was robust enough that we’d be able to patch and maintain the game into the future."

Oh Risk what do you think?

I think making all weapons accessible is better than having super complicated combat mechanics. Minecraft does this well

@@OhRisk True

True

@@OhRisk also the intro is so real 😂 are you 18 too?

CS2 was an update to CS:GO which changed the game engine. They used the same Steam store, same achievements (which got deleted sadly). Everything else is valid

@@OhRisk No, its a new game. it literally says it in the title "csgo 2". and yes, if u search for csgo, you get directed to csgo 2, but that doesn't mean its an update, ur just delusional. its a completely new game in a different engine.

@@JuhoSprite they pushed CS2 as an update on the same branch of CS:GO. literally go on the Counter-Strike website and read that it says "Counter-Strike 2 is a free upgrade to CS:GO" before calling me delusional. Could it be classified as a new game? Sure. But in reality it's actually a massive update to CS:GO.

​@@OhRisk Canonically it might be an update, but realistically its not. Guess if they said it themselves Ill take the L.

Appreciate you for being humble my guy, I wish you the best

Hytale does have MMO-like mechanics, so I believe it applies to the game

Me too. Unfortunately we need to do this to survive as Hytale creators.

True

Yeah I don't want myself and others to get overhyped just to get a mediocre game. I really hope that doesn't happen, but the gameplay so far looks promising even though it's not new engine gameplay.

Lmao Hytale back in 2016 is a modding platform, not just a game. In Hytale you will be able to create your own map / server / mod / sound / animation / script. And if you're not a creator, you can play other people's maps / servers.

With the combat system hope they do it well. Also some people prefer a simpler combat system. I wouldn't say it's a terrible argument but I'm going to agree to disagree on that one

True, it's like they're trying to make this game everything and perfect.

It really isn't. It's just that the old engine couldn't cope anymore and the developers knew it, but turned a blind eye to it. I'd rather wait for a good game with good optimisation than suffer from technical solutions that appeared in 2015.

I think even if they released it it will not be good like at all if you go back to the old footage you will notice a lot of problems and bugs and unfinished content so this was the best decision hypixel has made for the entire game and we should support them because the game is now really better than what it was

Most of the development time is the devs remaking the engine to support updates and modding better, not to make extremely complex systems

And its not turning away from the original game, its improving on it to make sure it is the game people wanted it to be

@@Teryte the biggest problem i have that say always say we now will get more transparent and they never rly do. No gameplay for years the only thing we got is a ytber that got shown old engin fotage. Why isn't the public allowed to see that fotage? Does it look that unfinished? And why don't they give us new engin fotage does it not work at all? If so at least tell us that the game by no mean would be ready in the next 2 years

I agree 100% the devs are trying way to hard to be perfectionists people liked what they saw back at the announcement trailer I personally feel like they are trying to hard to do to many things at once I personally want a more simple combat system and it people want it to be more in depth they have already said that a modding tool will be apart of the game I feel like they are trying to beat the modding community to the punch before launch I mean who knows at this point people might not even like the game and it might flop which I can only imagine what that would do to dev moral after working on it for 6 years

It's basically just going to be like console

You don't get my point. I never said that Hytale mobile will be terrible. All I said was that it isn't a good idea to focus on mobile before the game is even released. Once Hytale is out and people can actually play on it only then it's a good idea to make a mobile port of the game. Making a mobile version of the game is a great idea.

Most baseless claim of all time 😂
