These platforms just pigeon hole developers into a corner. Yeah I get it - it makes game dev 'accessible' but what are we really missing out on? I'd take quality of quantity any day.

Obviously building a game engine from scratch is a massive work of labor and requires vast knowledge in alot of things, but outside of AAA studios, is anything building engines from the ground up?
