Could you build this?

No Building or maintaining a custom fork of shadPS4 (a PlayStation 4 emulator) to boot a AAA game requires deep expertise in low-level x86/FreeBSD kernel emulation and Vulkan/GPU translation.

What it would actually take: Requires C++, Vulkan, deep knowledge of PS4 OS system calls, GNM/GNMX graphics driver translation to modern Vulkan pipelines, and low-level game-specific shader patching that only specialized graphics/emulation engineers can develop.
