I like Godot but it's not the answer to everything and it doesn't fit everyone's needs. Why does anyone make their own stuff? To learn, to have full control and know exactly what it's doing. Just telling a developer to "use x game engine" isn't particularly helpful.

One engine does not rule them all.
Their existing tooling, setup, asset management, etc, would have to change to use a different engine, and that can be quite a hefty bit of work - if the engine is even suitable for what kind of game they want to make.
yeah i know, but his games arent really that complex
i understand it for cyberpunk or other huge open world games, but a pixel style point and click.... i dont know... doesnt seem to by very economically

RTX....i think only people with an 2080 or higher can play this game with RTX and more than 30 FPS, but today every game needs RTX, even if nobody can use it

Quoting: stankalovichThere have a been a few Linus Tech Tips videos that were very pro Linux. The impact of a channel with 11.2M subscribers (as of now) can't be ignored.
LTT is a gaming channel and Steam numbers went down, not up.
they mostly show and explain hard and software. the benchmark games, but they rarely play them
it is a tec channel and not a gaming channel
