This is kinda more like I was talking about. Working with a 20 year old game engine is not easy. Tools are generally garbage and just working on one thing is usually an ordeal. I was just thinking a newer engine would be far easier to work with for the devs. And in terms of performance, a potato PC today is miles better then what the highest end PC could do 20 years ago. Heck just enabling usage of multi-threads would be a huge improvement. If anything this would just get more eyes on the project and lead more people to it that wouldn't have touched an "icky 20 year old MMO".
