Are we game devs going to return to game frameworks like XNA. It was brutal trying to make a simple editor just to display sprites and the developer becomes the bottle neck.

Former Elder Scrolls Online devs just launched Sackbird Studios—employee-owned, self-funded, and delightfully unpolished (check that MS Paint homepage 🎨). Small team, big ambitions, zero corporate mandates. Hoping this one sticks. 🐦

Looks like a Cryengine community version is in the works as no word om Cryengine 6 but some limitations still apply as it’s not fully open sourced.
Cryengine Community Edition
Games from scratch just reported about the current Cryengine 5.7 being updated by the community into its own community edition. Since Crytek has no word about the next update to Cryengine 6 this is a semi open-source solution to take the Cryengine forward. A previous forked happened with Lumberyard as a fork of Cryengine 3. But Amazon did not managed to make it as mainstream as Unity or Unreal and spun it off to its own open sourced project O3DE.
