Let’s be perfectly honest, Unity can be a genuine pain and is far from being the best engine on the market, but it does have it’s strengths. But if you could make your engine, incorporating your favourite parts of other engines, what would it be like?
Basically Unity , with a built in code editor , a more aggressive autocomplete in the IDE .
One scripting language , C# , a 2D mode .
Cant really complain about cost , since Unity is good enough to let me upgrade my free Android license for 125$ and I don’t need pro features .
327-cubic-inch V8. My 67 Chevelle had one and it purred like a tiger.
Oh you mean game engine…
Well if you’re going there, Lambo V12.
All.
Day.
Long.
I would have to agree for the most part with Bruno on this one if I were making games for money. I do this as a hobby, though, so my perfect engine would be an engine with the ease of use and pipeline of Unity, all the features of Unity, but with a much better built-in GUI system than Unity. Maybe sprinkle on a few more features.
and a “Make MMO” button
On car engines, I would take a 1200 horsepower W16 with 1100 foot-pounds of torque. It’s pretty much the engine off the Veyron supersport. Unfortunately, I don’t think it will fit nicely into my Passat :p.
It’d be pretty neat if there was an engine that inputs game ideas and outputs the results. Of course the market would then be FLOODED with games. Whether that’s good or bad - you decide.
It would be a modified unity that lets you use light-maps and normal maps on terrain and lest you pick and choose what feature plugins to buy (although I entirely understand why they don’t use that model).
Sort of like this Semantic Game Builder Interface? 
Haha exactly. But it definitely needs more “it’s like X, mixed with Y” and “The payment would be royalties after the game is developed and starts making money”
A game engine like this. Just tell the computer Make me call of duty combined with skyrim and GTA but better. BOOM game pops out.
A game engine were i don’t need to bother with performance, were i could use any asset and how many assets as i liked : )
Three Engines for the RPG-kings under the sky,
Seven for the FPS-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for PC Men doomed to die,
One for the Skull Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Bones where the Gamers lie.
One Engine to rule them all, One Engine to find them,
One Engine to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Bones where the Gamers lie.

my precious…
A game engine that included a procedural universe generator, don’t scoff check out Elite Dangerous and Limit Theory
Procedural:
Planet / terrain / ocean generation
Procedural Biome generation
Procedural Erosion generation
Weather systems simulation / clouds / rain / snow / ice / thunder / lightning
City / Town generator ideally with a slider for the time period.
Voxel assisted destructible terrain
Destructible physical objects
Fluid simulation
Volumetric dynamic lighting effects
Limited / affordable GPU ray-tracing
GPU based high performance physics
AI state machine with basic Neural Network and Genetic Algorithms for behavioural training with LOD.
Advanced LOD path-finding built in.
And a big GOD button labelled “Let there be fun!”
Wow my imagination still works! ;0)
UDK bro,UDK hahahahahhahahaha
my dream engine is possibly a Unite Free with shadows feature but 0% unity and 100% free
Really tired of hearing about UDK. I know it’s good, but it’s not God, like everyone acts like it is…
I dunno dude you can surely play god with it.
