3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Is there something to be worried about here with the Unreal Engine being the only big business in town in terms of indie game development for 3d game engines?

I mean obviously yes, but how worried should we be of this becoming a bottleneck?
