Let me complain about the name of this game engine.

From a marketing perspective, this game engine has been renamed multiple times. That's a big no-no. And every name has been terrible.

The most recent name change was "Stride." I really don't understand whoever came up with that. Is it really that hard to come up with a simple, catchy name?

I want this engine to be successful.

Please, if possible, provide a roadmap for each major release.

Then, with each major release, conduct extensive publicity efforts.

Every once in a while. Establish some typical success cases and let them help promote this engine.
I think some people would be happy to do this(Free help with promotion and publicity.), even if it costs nothing.

The name change was required because Xenko was a trademark property of Silicon Studio which made the engine initially.

The new name was chosen by the community at the time. I do like it. You don't. Fine, everybody's their own taste. There is no reason to change it now.

I invite you to engage with the community on Discord if you have suggestions.

Personally, I have no complaints about this name “Stride”. It's just that from a communication perspective, it's not easy to spread.

There's some ambiguity because a lot of things are called "Stride". Yesterday I searched for how to get the direction between 2 points and ended up with a fitness video. Sometimes when I search for details of the community toolkit I end up with a youth activity group.

I quite like the name but it does present that hurdle at times
