lmao. Like i said its going to be a long time. Learning blender, plus Unity isn't going to be easy but eventually id like to like to introduce modding. Ill try to build a solid foundation that can host several types of rigging so anyone can put whatever in there. Im not going to be a gate keeper about it so maybe it could turn into a community project. I'm already several months into Blender and Ive got a little experience with Unity but this will be a massive undertaking for me. When I feel like Ive got a good handle on at least those two programs, I'll open a discord.

Unreal does not have performance issues.
TikTok brain rot has convinced you that it does, but the fact remains - a lot of developers do not optimise their games.
UE5 and UE4 when optimised properly (see Stellar Blade as a prime example) can run great on older hardware. The fact a lot of developers now are too fucking lazy because they rely heavily on DLSS to pick up the slack is just... Par for the course.
So, what are you saying? A porn game with gameplay? It wouldn't Be a game if it didn't have gameplay. Also, interactive porn are those games featured in the forum with real porn in it. The way I see it, a porn game with meaningful choices leading to multiple paths and endings is called an "Interactive Porn Game", a cross between the two things that you're railing on. Seems simple enough to me.
Unreal 5.2 onward does not support windows 7 despite their initial advertising for UE5 stating it had the same minimum requirements as UE4, this does count as performance issue as it force-phased out obsolete yet usable systems. And i'm pretty sure the average age of F95 viewers makes them impervious to tiktok, I for one have never even seen tiktok let alone used it. However you are right in that what plagues UE is the absence of any attempts at optimization, some may even do the reverse of that and even the built in UE options (which are garbage) do not change anything in their game.
Soooooo! if the horse get her prego, do we get a centaur or do we get an ipotane ?

Windows 7 is almost 16 years old at this point... Support for Windows 7 from Microsoft was dropped long ago, heck - they're dropping Windows 10 support soon. (Windows 10 is also 10 years old...). Ageing hardware, dated software packages and of course redundant drivers makes development harder for a lot of developers. The fact UE in general is as versatile as it is (PC, Console, Android/iOS/Tablet etc) is not an easily achievable feat in an of itself.
It phased out nothing. The fact people are too lazy/cheap/tight to upgrade their OS or hardware is not the responsibility of Epic Games to remedy. Epic owes you nothing.
You cannot know the average age of users on F95 - so to assume anything otherwise is just nonsensical. Great that you don't use it, though.
The major issue is the rush to market. Optimisation itself is not the issue, it's the lack of resources and dedication/focus on those areas. General workflows means that development should leave room for optimisation, however, a lot of companies now scrap that phase for "after release" and then try to pull a CDPR, see Cyberpunk.
Release now, fix later is the norm of gaming in general. This is not the fault of Unreal Engine, Epic or any industry leading hardware/software. A hot take I hold is, it's the rushed impatience of consumerism and consumption of media, people are so used to not waiting these days that those insta-dopamine hits at this stage are almost mandatory. Hence why Tiktok is so fucking popular... McDonalds for the brain.

While I do agree there really isn't much reason to use Windows 7 in 2025, It does still get Year 6 ESU (Ends in 2026 though) so it's still technically supported.
However, I agree in the part of I don't see why many app devs would target it these days though due to low user base.
Only major browser still supporting Windows 7 officially is Firefox 115 ESR. App support is pretty dead for 7 at this point.
They should upgrade to 10 LTSC (probably 2016 or 2019 version if on HDD) or Linux if hardware is old.
Windows 10 LTSC does not include the functions required by UE5.2 (UE5.2 phased out windows 7 and windows 10 prior to 22Hwhatever number that was, I don't remember the exact version.) [the functions required are present in both these systems btw, only their name changed and Epic didn't alias them for retrocompatibility afaik]

If that's the case, 2021 LTSC exists which is based on 21H2 (according to UE requirements site should be enough) but it will probably be pretty slow if you use a hard drive.
I did go from windows 7 to windows 10 LTSC in 2023, by that point 21H2 had been released for 2 years so it's very likely this version I installed, and wild life would not launch, throwing the same error as windows 7, installing windows 10 latest version is what allowed me to play it. I can't call UE requirements 100% to be bullshit, but I'll do it nonetheless.

Guaranteed this can be patched out if the needed function exists in older versions under another name lol
It is worth noting that I use Linux primarily, but looking back at your post history, I noticed that most of your messages in the last few years are regarding issues launching/playing games. When was the last time you reinstalled Windows, or the device you are currently using was first used? Do you mind providing your CPU, GPU model and the amount of RAM your system has? It might be helpful if you provide the model number of your PC if it is a laptop or OEM (prebuilt) system. Best of luck!
