The game that there is a crouch walk and an actual functioning aiming system puts it leagues and miles above the original. Just by default.

Problem with FOX engine is Konami likely lost a lot of technical talent to maximize the output of the engine; and most importantly in the long run building and using your own engine just doesn’t make sense. When you need to add resources to a project having your own in-house technology means a steeper onboarding curve since you can’t exactly learn FOX engine on your own, and employee churn makes more strenuous since you’ll be be naturally bleeding out expertise.

Adopting a streamlined mass adoption engine means you have a ton of resources on hand to utilize off the gate, lots of publically available knowledge and a larger talent pool that can start running on day 1.

You might be able to offset the short and long term costs of engine development by licensing it and turning it into a revenue stream e.g DECIMA engine but it’s a longshot.
