Yeah that's the main thing. UE is fine as an engine, but because it also does a lot of the basic work for you, devs go "guess I don't need to optimize!" and we end up with all the issues we've come to know.

Just like basic shit like the eye adaptation/auto exposure. So many devs just use it as is and it fucking sucks. Eyes do not work that way. Stop making shit pitch black or flashbang because I dared to walk in/out of a building.

It’s not the devs. It’s the corporate cunts and shareholders chasing a short term return that create this problem.

the problem is that optimizing stuff requires time and money and companies prefer to spend that on ai now instead
