I rephrase: It's generally not /useful/ to Google an image.
See attached. Not one single image of Unreal Editor.

I think it's a case of the developers not only having to use the tools
themselves, but also having the time to work on the tools.

These things are geared at next generation game consoles due in about 1-2 years.
You know E3 was running these days, right?

I still watch movies, even computer generated ones from same old boring angles
as last time I watched.
There was a supposed feature of bluray that allow one to watch a few scenes from
other selected camera angles. Too little, too late.

No.
The thing that's jaw-droppingly incredible is that in 10 years' time,
all of this stuff will look laughably fake compared to the technology
cheaply available for purchase. (!)

It's Unreal Engine, and there's an editor. The search keywords should be
rather obvious.

I found it to be so. You can't disagree with my subjective opinion of
something. (Or rather, you can hold a contrary opinion, but that doesn't
make my opinion invalid for me on something that's subjective).

You may find it so, but I don't. Having watched computer technology
since the 70's, what would surprise me is if in 10 years this /isn't/
possible on inexpensive hardware.
