That is a huge plus when you’re talking about in-game development. Yes, Cinemachine is a plug-in for Unity, but what makes this plug-in great for this platform is the fact there are many other plug-ins to choose from that can work seamlessly with Cinemachine. As of yet, there is no distributed baking.

Godot uses a considerably different approach to rendering (and rendering abstraction) than other, popular, game engines. As for DirectX12, it's only relevant for Windows/UWP, so there is no strong incentive for us to support it as a cross-platform engine. This allows beautiful mixing between baked and real-time.
