In the first comparison of Genie 3 to Genie 4 it seems that:

- in Genie 4 the character's suit stopped making sense in the back where it now has a weird fold?

- the controls don't control the character even anymore as now its controlling some kid-height character in first person instead?

- Everything looks like Unreal Engine.

This does not look good.

"controlling" some kid-height character. the button-pressing seems almost frustrated with the lack of response, long holds with no (or opposite) change and sometimes mashing. are they supposed to be buttons a person pressed to direct it? or did it create those too?

I found it perplexing how the dragons shrank in size, or perhaps the castle turret in the background didn't shrink fast enough.

Either way, the sense of believability was rapidly (and smoothly) lost.
