Don't worry, though, you will be able to reap the benefits of these new features without sacrificing your game's performance. Several new optimization techniques are also at your disposal, such as occlusion culling , automatic mesh LOD , and manual HLOD using visibility ranges , made possible by Joan Fons ( JFonS ), and Juan.

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. They allow very high-budget games to run better and, in the long run, make the job of writing drivers MUCH simpler to hardware manufacturers. They are simply not good enough for our use case. Rendering design.

The new 3D engine is outstanding, with many features out-of-the-box that are still not common in other mainstream engines. The new 3D renderer is state-of-the-art, with features rarely see in game engines today, such as: Full principled BSDF. The 3D asset workflow has also seen great improvements.
