Updating a game engine is hard

[GSH]

Good GDC 2015 video on what it took to update the Halo engine for Destiny.

Awesome vid. Hard to believe it took them 6 years - thats like an eternity in development time.

Yeah the engine is evolving with time as computers are becoming more sophisticated.
Im just wondering if it's better to use a third party software like MM5 such what forgotten enemies used.
If that's a possible route.
There must be someone out there that keeps updating that.

MM5 is an external utility rather than a game engine, and it hasn't been updated in years. Mods haven't really used it since the PB3 days.
