But that’s reason #2 Reason #1 is that there is a huge Unreal community. Because this results in two important things: 1. Easy hiring 2. Problem solving. 4626

Robot @robot-rob-prime.bsky.social · 18/06/2025If you think a game runs poorly because it's using Unreal Engine, that's not why. Laziness, lack of time, lack of knowledge, or a combination of those things are why. The optimization tools / strategies available are insanely good. Epic devs did their part, I promise. 000
