As a game dev that’s been using Unity ECS in production for over 2 years, it’s a very underwhelming implementation. Sure it’s fast if you design a game with Unitys intentions, but Unity has never made a game and what they made isn’t what game devs need.

This shocks me the most about how Unity operates. That they haven't figured out that dog-fooding their own main product is absolutely essential, especially since every single competitor of theirs does so very successfully as well.

How can you build something great for a specific group of people if you don't know what they are going through?
