IMO it says a lot about the engines that the Epic Games Store was built using Unreal, whereas "Unity Hub" was built using Electron. No need to fix Unity uGUI bugs when Unity are not using it themselves. 🙁

@splizzex Unity was definitely the right choice at the time (2013). I am still hopeful for the future of Unity, but of the two I think Unreal is the better option for 3D games in 2021.

@TruGunschlinger To clarify, I am saying it is good that Epic dogfoods their engine (Fortnite, Paragon, EGS, etc) whereas it can feel like Unity is frustratingly out of touch with their customers.

@LostWolfCanine Invisible blowtorch and bow icons was my mistake, fixed in this morning's patch.

@erlitedev @TruGunschlinger Fair point. As far as DIY engine-level features go, I think both are improving. e.g. Unity is further ahead in custom rendering with scriptable render pipelines, and newer Unreal features are more extendable than the old ones.

@TruGunschlinger @erlitedev Isn't TaskGraph kind of a Unreal equivalent of the job system? Using TaskGraph for a few async things in Unturned like screenshot compression. Agreed about 2D, Paper2D is soo far behind.
