I am not a fan of leadwerks 5. substance support and all these features are free in other engines. I am not a fan of monthly subscriptions to use software, I can justify an actual game like WoW because of the enjoyment factor is way more than video game creation. Both can be enjoying though. If i want substance support I would use unreal engine 4 which is free, Epic just asks for 5% of your income when you actually sell a game. Which is superior to a monthly subscription model, only to be trumped by a reasonably priced engine like leadwerks 3 was when i picked it up a couple years ago, glad to see $100 go down the drain currently as this is planed.
