Is there an engine that beats unreal for a game project like this? Cant expect them to develop their own. Few have that expertise

Pretty much the same. I got bored like 1/3 of the 2nd one.
Somehow I doubt this one will be different.

Hahaha the demo is such terrible jank. Platforming is terrible. You can turn off candles, but overall brightness of the scene doesn't change. Graphics look like a 360 game. Angina 5.

Yuck

average on opencritic hovering around 7.5. Don't think the earlier games ever made it past that. And they were still awesome Smile the hunger for stealth games is real Very Happy

I have little time and desire to playtest work-in-progress/unfinished games (practically 90% of the releases these days) so yep, I'm also patientbearing as usual Razz
Hopefully the game isn't too much of a departure from the previous ones, which offered a multilayered level design with some genuinely rewarding panthering despite the signature jank and low-budget-isms. Pure stealth games are a rarity (sadly), and most tripe-A entries fail to provide satisfying experiences.

Edit:

Since there's the derpy CA/KCBlur/Film grain trio enabled by default, add these to the end of the Engine.ini file (AppData\Local\Styx3\Saved\Config\WindowsClient)
