Excuse my ignorance but which engine typically has the most realistic renders/animations. Or is that strictly up to the creator's talent?
Ren'Py vs Unity for realistic animations
- Thread starter godfather77
- Start date
Renpy is not an animating tool. It's a codding software to write game's code and logic.
Blender is probably the best free 3D animating tool and widely used for games and other projects. There are others (maya, 3dmax), but I don't know much about them.

Either engine can play videos/animations. Unity being a full game engine can do more types of animations obviously(real time 3D, tweening, has built in animation tools, a more advanced rendering engine), but for pre-rendered videos/animations like most games have, none of these really matter and both are more or less even. Unity might technically be more performant or allow more file formats, but not in any meaningful way. Use whatever engine you want or feel more comfortable with.
As for making pre-rendered animations, as fidless mentioned, Blender is your go to. Other choices are Daz3D, Source Filmmaker, or the paid alternatives: Maya, 3DSMax or Cinema 4D. But Blender is arguably the only one worth going for.
