• Some information about the Creation Kit changes for Starfield.

  Aside from that The Forge is also: https://theforge.dev/ They're contractors who can help with building engines or updating them. Pretty sure a while back when we learned The Forge was used, research indicated the only thing they had helped with was Vulcan support as that's all they said they'd done on their portfolio where they listed BGS.

  We know they're overhauling almost every aspect of the engine (E3 trailer was essentially a demo of Creation Engine 2) and they've hired a ton of talent specifically for that initiative. One example off the top of my head, the hired the lead animations engineer from Saints Row IV to rebuild that system. They're apparently also working with the Forge team on some of the engine stuff.

• Are you a licensed developer for consoles? Want them to support Godot out of the box so you don't rely on a third party? Please let Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft that you would appreciate them financing this support.

  I'm trust this API more than Godot because it has been use by Super Giants to create Hades which won many awards and become popular game. Also Forge team work with many AAA company. (COD, Spider Man PS4, Bethesda new engine for Starfield) https://theforge.dev/ and not just that the guy behind this is Wolfgang Engel. Source: over 3 years ago
