You first, dumbass.

As a sidebar, why the fuck is Unreal Engine 5 so popular? I feel like every game I've seen use it ends up being a buggy unoptimized mess.

This comment makes me think of Dune Awakening which had so many movement related bugs and no first person view. Somehow just the engine seems too awful for developers to use. Or maybe just picking it is a sign you dont care about the game

It's an engine that puts everyone else before programmers - which is great for artists and designers as they can blueprint animations and simple things. It's bad however when the performance relies on programmers whose time is already torn between trying to do things The Unreal Way™️ and fixing bugs caused by someone doing more than they should have in one big and messy blueprint hotpot.
