Unreal engine 5 - when?

I especially like the lumen effect for the long dark.

What are you talking about? The game's made on Unity.

i dont take into consideration how the game is made now.

Thats so great, they could probably have people buy the game a 2nd time to make the changeover

This is one of those wishes you would need a genie for. It will never happen for this game because it would be a massive undertaking and you would likely be disappointed by the results. The game is made around low resolution textures and low poly models. It works because it's consistent and has a unique and appealing(to me) style to it.

The one thing that would be better is the lighting, if they got that working like in the demo. However they could do a much better job within unity already. I really hope they do because the lighting needs some attention. The game has the exact issue that is shown at 37 seconds into the video. The fire is going and the floor is bright right infront of the fire but everything else is black as pitch. It's pretty terrible. If they had some extra light sources to simulate the light bouncing around the room that could give a pretty decent experience without being computationally heavy.

It also makes it possible for me to play on a 2014 piece of junk Lenovo business desktop.  I like the art style as well.

The processor I've used for TLD came out in 2009. I will likely be getting something new soon but I am not sure if I want to wait for zen4 or just get a 5800X3D or what. I will decide at some point.

The graphics can be lowered

Indeed, but I doubt UE5 can lower them to run well on a 2014 business desktop with an onboard GPU.
