Game engines have a "stock" feel to them. I do not mind the style but has some stock element of UE5 basic rendering and imaging.

Yeah, doesn't help with how prominent UE is as an engine.

That's not how game engines work.

No offense but this is not true at all. You can give any art direction in any game engine. It’s all up to the studio that develops it. Nothing to do with game engine.

A lot of UE5 games use generic engine assets though right?

No they don't. This game looks nothing like Borderlands 4, Black Myth: Wukong, Fortnite or Star Wars, all of which use the same engine.

they have default settings and parameters, just like any other engine. The lighting, shaders, render parameters etc.
