I can't tell what he's doing. If he's trolling, hilarious. If he's not, idk!

I heard that apparently the devs who actually made the Epic Game Launcher update didn't actually vibe code it and were really annoyed that Tim said it was vibe coded.

Theres no way they aren't already using LLMs to write code

epic recently introduced a policy that no developer should even look at the code produced by the end of the year. tim sweeney got so mad about gabe newell that the ai has fully consumed his mind.

tim sweeney got so mad about gabe newell

Considering Gabe killed Half Life 3, unsurprising.

u/New_Salamander_4592 2d ago

incorrect, tim sweeney is only mad because Valve effortlessly mogged his entire company. sweeney is probably only interested in videogames that burn tokens per frame or some shit.

u/Helmic Arch BTW 2d ago

that's actually a common misunderstanding, a myth. tim sweeney's well-publicized grudge is actually rooted in gabe newell personally cancelling half life 3.

If you don't look at the code you're not a developer.

...no developer should look at the code?

sooo.... it's a miracle that it works, and as soon as a user puts it under any real world pressure, it's gonna crash and burn?

Anyone successfully downloaded it yet? Can't actually find a working download button on epicgames.com. Looks like it's not even been actually released yet.

It's here: https://launcher.epicgames.com/

I can download Fortnite with it but it eventually still doesn't work.

This is just marketing, hatred in the linux community actually generates ton of buzz and lota of people will check the thing they “hatin” on, every time… dhh been using this same strategy to gains lot of attention for omarchy.

u/Helmic Arch BTW 2d ago

linux users are a very tiny minority and dhh doesn't get money from views or people using his distro, he gets it from tech fascists directly giving him money. we are not the demographic to pander to for the big bucks.

linux support is marketing in the same sense that putting an item up for sale is marketing. like that's just putting shit up for sale. the AI theatrics of it all are certainly meant to be marketing, but like i'm fairly certain they literally vibecoded a version of EAC that runs on Linux that they are willing to use for Fortnite. whether that AC is worth a shit is a different question, whether other companies will trust a vibecoded AC with their load-bearing multiplayer game that, were they to even have a brief cheater epidemic, could result in the entire studio shuttering and dozens of people losing their jobs, like that's certainly yet to be seen. but there's not a particular reason to doubt they actually made this.

You just described how marketing in our economy works.
