Glad this was flagged. A lot of people have a misconception of managed languages being slow compared to your regular ol' binary program, these days that couldn't be further from the truth. In traditional high performance C/C+

"and it looks like they're finally improved on what was a terrible, clunky, extremely dated UI." doesn't hold true, it's mostly the same UI with a dark reskin. Certain editor hot paths have been reworked and that&#x

I choose to irrationally support Linux, because I like Linux. There is literally no financial incentive for me to do so. We were recently debugging a newer build on Linux, which was inexplicitly crashing on a players machine, while running
