Here’s the part that decides if this works or fails. It’s not just about building a third person prototype, it’s about making the combat feel responsive and polished right from the start so future expansion has a solid foundation. If I were in your shoes, I’d be worried about two things. One, that the core mechanics feel clunky and players lose interest before visuals even matter. Two, that performance dips once realistic assets are layered in, which makes the prototype harder to scale. First thing I’d do is lock in a clean movement and combat loop, focusing on responsiveness, hit detection, and animation blending. The move here is to then test performance early with placeholder assets before integrating realistic visuals, so you get a smooth, optimized build from the start. I’ve seen prototypes where the difference wasn’t in flashy content, but in how fluid the core combat felt. Once that was solid, expanding into more content and visual polish became straightforward. Once this is in place, you’ll have a working Unreal Engine prototype that feels polished, runs smoothly, and shows off both mechanics and realistic visuals in a way that can grow into a full project. It doesn’t have to be complicated. Do you want the first version focused strictly on combat mechanics and player feel, or should I also build in a basic environment to showcase the visuals alongside gameplay?
