We've published Godot Engine's first written vision statement, formalizing a decade of shared experience building, releasing, and maintaining it. This is intended to guide the Godot Foundation as we make decisions about where to allocate our resources. Read more: godotengine.org/article/godo...

Great goals overall! As a dev making a commercial game, I particularly hope yall are able to follow through on "Runs on hardware people own" — the most vexing issues I've been running into are graphic driver incompatibilities and crashes. They're hard to detect and extremely difficult to diagnose.

I fully agree, it's incredibly frustrating that GPU driver updates tend to break Godot once in a while. We hoped switching to D3D12 by default in 4.6 would solve things, but it turns out GPU vendors also like to brick their D3D12 drivers occasionally.

It's not a Godot-specific issue though, I regularly see mentions of similar problems with Unity and Unreal games. But regressions in drivers get fixed faster when they're affecting one of the Big Two.
