As a game developer, I'm really rooting for open source game engines.

Unity and Unreal are dinosaurs that target the shrinking console market. Godot is being built in their image. My hope is that something more versatile like Bevy becomes common so that we have something that could potentially compete with the next generation of Roblox.

Do you think the next generation of Roblox will be a dominating games engine?

Roblox is strung up in its own closed and exploited ecosystem, so hopefully no.

I really hope not, but I wouldn’t bet against it. The nature of products that take high capex to build and then have nearly zero marginal cost to reproduce is monopolies.
