Could you give an example? I’m trying to understand what the limits look like. It appears to be trivial to you, but for someone outside of game design, I can’t imagine what those might be.
We ended up implementing more and more tooling outside the engine, and there comes a point where UE4 became a IO/Rendering system. We'd've been happier if the engine were modular in design from the get-go.

I understand that you're saying that some systems exist that can't work. I'm trying to understand what those systems would look like, and how the user would see it as being different. Do you have an example of the system/mechanic that can't work?
