    Seriously!!

    The best part to me is that this is a former “principal animation engineer,” and they still have no self-awareness about why Epic sucks.

    It reminds me of an old saying that really good people hire really good people… but mediocre people often hire those that are worse than them to look better. That is, “A” people hire “A” people, but “B” people hire “C” people, and the team (or company) declines.

    Essays like this make me wonder if Epic has hired many good people over the years.

    It’s not a good sign that the cult of entitlement at Epic is so strong, even their most experienced former technical staff still write entitled essays after they leave. And they post them on X.
