Well certainly not on compute side of things:



I highly recommend this video, given its probably a reason UE5 isn't used it as much and certainly it isn't what initial hyped might have suggested

TLDR: Nanite introduce a lot of overdraw, which means you are wasting GPU cycles, LOD even generated one is far better for optimisation. Given what has been said in this video and by own account, while playing with it extensively, I think Nanite will be something like a ID Tech mega texture down the line. Not the mention the strain on CPU, which isn't handled in a way ID Tech 7 is for example. But one director core and other aux ones, which limits performance based on Single Core performance, which is especially problem in consoles.

I really wanted Nanite to succeed and grow into something widely used.

The idea of "infinite" draw distances is super exciting to me. Seeing dragons flying towards you from insane distances or being able to really take in the scope of a game world with not too much "fog".

It's a shame that this didn't grow into the industry standard I thought it would.

play some UE5 games.

It can do this:

soooo.... the same graphics we've had for 5-7 years now?

Man, I remember when people were saying this about the original Unreal.

Sooo true.. time flies!
