That's a lot of cash money. I'm still a bit confused at how much of this money will go to the actual engine and how much of it will go to supporting W4 in general, such as allowing devs to publish Godot games for consoles.

But what if we would rather have an engine that's good?

Good for what? I'd argue software freedom aught to be your priority.

So why even bother with a game engine? Write your rending from scratch and it's as free as you want.
