> If you don't need full control or maximum performance, something like OpenGL ES 2 will still be a lot easier to program because it does a lot of things for you that you would have to do yourself when using Vulkan. Which is normally done by the game engine. And the big ones are already migrating to Metal et. al. Is the market for self-made game engines still that big? From a consumers perspective, virtually everything is on one of the "big" engines nowadays (when in doubt, Unity).
