Munity's actually mostly fine
Ki hate c++ too much for unreal and i hate running netframework too much for unity
Lall the big ones are memory hogs :^)
Munity uses a custom mono jit it's not net framework
A(my game does use 4k textures but it will rarely ever load them, only on the highest ultra settings)
KExcept for the part where you have to wait like 20+ seconds after you hit the play button cause it's doing god knows what with scripts
Mif that happened you fucked something bad
KAnd then the occasional loading bar when you're not doing anything special because unity just hates you
Ktbh my singular issue with unity is the GC atm
Mi doubt coreclr gc is well suited for games
Kbut at the end of the day i just want to learn this stuff more than i want to make anything
Mi understand that
Tyou can do CoreCLR a bit
Munreal can do c# with sufficient effort
Athe gc is mostly fine
as long as you don't cause a ton of problems with it
looking at you, keen

Ai just don't like that C# has a gc to begin with
Mthen go code rust
Ai do
Kidk about coreclr but the current gc isnt great either in my experience but that might be the unity games i play being real bad about that sorta thing lmao
Abut i can't really use it for gamedev cause i still use oop a fair bit
Munity games are just coded poorly
Koxygen not included is such a clusterfuck
Mthe engine is fine
Mthe developers are just bad
Kfair enough lol
Lthen maybe the engine should better encourage people to write good code
Mlike i'm a diehard rimworld fan but that game's code is garbo
Mnot really what engines are for
Amost game's code is bad
Lif so many developers struggle to write good unity code maybe that shows something
Mmaybe they should read a book
Mdevs struggle to write code for unity because they usually lack previous programming skill
Mthat's not a slight
Mthat's just unity being good for first timers
L(or because unity is a complete and utter mess)
Tunity is not fine, and probably never will be
KI think unity is just a bit crippled due to the company constantly ripping out and shoving in things because they're desperate to show investors they're worth the effort
Kyeah
Lunity is filled with promotion chasing
Asolution to the problem: they should actually make a game with it
Ashows the investors its actually usable to make a game
Mthey do that shit all the time... i mean tech demos
Kalso im an aggressive hater of the sort of gameobject tree setup that unity uses just on a personal stylistic basis
KI think basically every feature in unity atm is like.... the functional stuff is (DEPRECATED) meanwhile the replacement lacks like 50% of the featureset of the old version
Lits just project managers making something because "oh jeez i need to prove my job actually matters"
Aand maybe they'll accidentally create a huge success like forknife 2 or whatever the heck kids are into nowadays
Mi love the gameobject entity-component setup it's lovely
KOh they did that, their dogfood project, and then they randomly fired that entire department because... reasons
Ka lot of people do like it and i understand why but i hate it
Mi have ten years coding my own engine experience under my belt and i don't ever want to go back
