I love the 8 Queens puzzle -sort of thing, with Verse's Minesweeper example. Sometimes defining the goal (or setup) is much more comfortable than thinking about the nitty gritty 'real world' with algorithms, or algorithm-like thinking even. :)

I find the syntax a bit too "clever" and therefore hard to read. With the way this language works it seems like it omits many language features that you can already omit with other languages but shouldn't in order to keep your code readable. For example if you have a complex condition, it makes sense to put that in a bool variable, name it what is does and then put that variable in the if head. This way you can just read the variable's name, instead of having to analyze the whole condition everytime. Same with that minesweeper code. Cool that you can put all of that code in one for loop. But why would you do that? Who would want to read that kind of code?

@TheBigWazowski

11 ай бұрын

For the “bool” point, it sounds like maybe you don’t like their “failure” system, which behaves similar to Rust’s Result system. If so, you can still have complex conditions that you store in a bool. You would just have to have written your function to return a bool, rather than “fail”. “Failure” is more of an exception system where you only throw upon an unexpected error that is unrecoverable from your current scope. I think it’s common to like terse syntax for exception handling because it can obfuscate the code. You may disagree

Like everything about unreal engine, this will also have a limited documentation.

Love how ESRB rated this stuff as VIOLENCE!

I'm already seeing performance issues with this. For instance, you made array access a failable expression, which builds bounds-checking as a core assumption in the logic of the program. That means that not only do you incur a couple extra operations every time you want to access an array, each access _is potentially a branch!_ And it's not like you can just turn the feature off as an optimization, because it seems like many features of the language _depend_ on this branching in order to function.

The impact of bounds checking is not a concern for the vast majority of code in a codebase, only the hot paths. Mostly because the branch predictor will typically assume an in bounds access. An out of bounds access should be an ultra rare occurrence since that indicates a software bug. When accessing it inside a hotpath, you should be able to structure your code in such a way that either the compiler can optimize the bounds checking or using an “unsafe” api that you “manually” bounds check. There’s also hope for this to be executable on user/client side, so bounds checking is a nearly non-negotiable security requirement

How do you expect people to spend time learning this new language when you have spent so little time documenting your c++ engine code? That goes for all of your documentation, really. UE is a great engine, but the documentation, across the board, is garbage, especially for code. I can't imagine learning and using a new language with bad documentation. Do better in this regard.

really like how Verse bucks the authoritarian trend in new languages, such as Rust, Go, which force programmers to name things in the exact way the language author demands, or code won't compile.

I don’t think this will go very far, it started the wrong way already. If there’s a need to design a new language, the syntax needs to be much simpler than the existent alternatives, otherwise, why would you create something that it’s even more complex and awkward than C++ itself, it’s just easier to stick to C++ then, of course C++ isn’t a script, but the syntax could be similar, because that’s the syntax most of the languages already uses, from C#, Java to JavaScript, they all have similarities to C++, I’m not saying they should use an existing language, they could just make it more similar to something people are already familiar. They’re creating a barrier to themselves, look at what Mojo language is doing, they’re not reinventing the wheel, they’re using a well known syntax to leverage the performance they want to achieve, zero-barrier. Verse seems so wrong to me, why you need to create a whole new language, when everything being proposed here could be done completely with just new APIs, not a new language! If the goal was creating a new language so easy that it would sounds like a “Verse” what they came up was a syntax built on top of curse words from an alien civilization. Why would you ask your users to learn something so completely different when there are so many languages out there people are already familiar with, that doesn’t share almost anything in common with Verse, that’s wrong, just wrong…

He becomes the Architect of the Metaverse -> the Metaverse becomes conscious -> The AI creates a persona for itself based on the looks and speech pattern of the original Architect -> It uses Metaverse to trap humans into a sustained state of immersion -> It renames Metaverse as Matrix and gives itself the purpose of debugging anomalies!

For new language there is an incredibly high bar for utility and this just doesn't show that and nebulously claiming no other language is "scalable" enough doesn't cut it. You call it "open" but it can only be used in unreal engine, there is no open spec, let alone a compiler/runtime implementation available. To me this just look like a method to lock developers into the epic ecosystem. You could have added support for one of the many open source languages out there, with incredible performance, support and actual open development that people have been asking you to do for years, but instead you're reinventing the wheel. its also kind of funny how you say its timeless while naming it after a concept that is already fading in terms of mindshare

Can we have verse in rider? XD

Coming from C++/BP to Verse feels like going from a Tesla to a Horse Cart. Things that take 10 seconds in BP, such as attaching one Actor to another, take a lot of time and effort in Verse. In its current state, it's not really a good language for programming gameplay. Those who endorse Verse, are usually newer developers without much experience or knowledge of what it takes to code complex and intricate gameplay systems. But yea, no offense to those who jump on it for the UEFN money. In times where you need to fight for every wishlist on Steam, it's great that we have a metaverse platform now with millions of potential players.

Considering there is also Unreal Mass (if you want performance and some composition-expressivity at the cost of conciseness), and of course Blueprints (if you want ease of use and... not much else), I am not sure for which use case this is not just good for, but significantly better than the alternatives - but who knows, I would like to be proven wrong.

First!

So instead of just using C# you went and invented something that makes no sense? I cant wait to see how hard it is for people to learn this, everything is going to be an unreadable mess.

I really find myself wondering as a game developer; how will this change the gaming industry?, are we all just going to be developing tiny parts of a big system now? Will traditional gaming die off? Will world-building become a relic of the past?

In the long term it's probably Unreal that is going to become a relic of the past.

So there will be no c++ in near future guys??..

Hmm

No thanks. Stop wasting your time on the next failed uscript please.

Instead of making something good better... and since we have infinite money, lets reinvent the wheel, but make it oval. The world doesnt need new syntax. Smh. This is typical of people who no longer code, but want to make something new. Just add features to python ffs.

Can not see the reason why the syntax looks so weird comparing to other major c likes, other than raising the learning curve, can not see other meaningful points.....

Wow! This is revolutionary 😎

pls wrap verse with GTP to use it with natural language or pseudocode. If not, at least make verse blueprints to overcome the syntax complexity.

capitalized values? yeah, everyone like tapping the shift key constantly ... NOT! Why make things the opposite of everyone else?! Oh, because you want noone to use it, I get it!

I am stuck in wonder if this is a great pivotal moment.

The syntax & style choices are very tragic

Could have used an existing language. This is so weird and their explanation is not convincing.
