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

The question is about Unity .

Answer:
Building your own engine only makes sense if you have very specialised performance needs or features that Unity cannot provide (such as custom hardware, graphics innovations, or unique simulation needs), and your team has deep engine expertise. For most products, Unity is faster, cheaper, and supports a wide variety of needs without reinventing the wheel.
