World models could complement, not replace, game engines for prototyping

After hands-on testing PixVerse's real-time world model R2, CodeByPoonam argues world models won't replace traditional game engines but could complement them by helping developers explore level ideas faster, experiment with player-driven experiences, and prototype worlds before building.
Traditional engines keep the edge when you need predictable rules, repeatable behavior, and precise control.
