  Haskell is still niche, but if the gaming community gets wind of that thing Epic is using for their systems, they might get interested in a vastly different way people are looking at haskell and pure fp right now. This might bring a new (and vast) crowd, and a crowd that might come with an apriori appreciation of haskell (because of the Epic brand trust), this often causes a religious view on whatever idea is learned.

    What programming language is Epic currently using? Do people have a religious view about that language?

    I don't think you should assume SPJ was brought in to transition Epic to Haskell.
    • agumonkey 5y ago
      You have a point, maybe it's fair to assume that it will put FP on the map though.

        FP is already on the map, though often labeled "Here be dragons."
