Unity vs custom engine: when does building your own make sense?

The question is about Unity .

Answer:

Building a custom engine only makes sense for a small minority of teams; Unity's DOTS (Data-Oriented Technology Stack) now handles large-scale simulation performance inside the engine itself. For nearly every other team, licensing Unity is faster and cheaper than building and maintaining engine code in-house.
