    I was learning unreal engine, but I guess it’s time to switch to Godot.

      Godot is honestly just so much nicer to use. I switched to it back in the day because of that after using Unreal and Unity. I didn’t even know what open source was at that point, I just liked it more.

      The rumor was that they bought part of Tencent share… but not sure if that was confirmed. If that’s better or not, not sure…

    I wonder what percentage stake that will give them. Tencent owns 40% of Epic.

    I guess it’s good they already sold Bandcamp then? Still pissed they ever bought it in the first place.
