Well, the "GTA6 Killer Clone" scam game: Paradise has relased an alpha version and guess what!
- Default Unreal assets used
- Game Animation Sample Project locomotion is used without ANY edits
- There are NO gameplay abilities
- The few maps available are NON-edited maps from the Fab marketplace
Trust me i know since I also use that shit for my games
The difference is: I am honest about it and not acting like I'm a Triple-A gaming studio to rake in funding
Please do not fall for this scam
There is nothing wrong with using store bought assets, I do it all the time because I simply am alone and do not have the time nor skill to model all assets
It's a different story when you advertise it's all "unique" and build in-house to get as much funding as possible
Unreal Engine is a wonderful tool that can help single and indie devs big time but its also a tool that can super easily be mis-used to create a scam like this
Exactly the same like with "The Day Before" scam game
There has been a few different game makers, particularly in the early '90s, and they resulted in people releasing games that were functionally identical and yet put out there as if they were unique. The only thing that's different now and then is at the quality of the assets are a thousand times better.

@sj_zero Ah yeah, kinda the same what they do now with "remastered" version and such
Basically the same games with a little graphics upgrade or different engine version
Oh look at that
Made a 1950's style GTA-ish game in under 30 min in Unreal
This derpy little project has already a ton more features then the release of the #Paradise scam game 🤷♂️
@gettie With a little bit of experience and a nice library of assets, yes 😉
If i can do it, everyone can!
