This is what happens when a company is more interested in scaling up their numbers and safeguarding against copyrights than actually weeding out poorly done works in the submission process. It’s about rapid expansion on bare-bones systems that will never get fixed, as they buy time to create a better system from scratch in the background (FAB).
Trust me, I just went through this hell-scape of a ‘process’ and it was nothing to do with quality control and more about personal nitpicks and misunderstanding context, poor communication by the ‘review’ team and copyright naming and declaring cc0 assets (which defeats the purpose of cc0 but protects Epic’s booty legally).
Lets hope that they are at least wise enough to take note of all their miserable failures and mistakes before they launch FAB. However, I am not holding my breath that they have learned anything. Nor do I believe they even need to bother to work on quality assurance and a neat marketplace because of the way the modern world works.
The world and especially the video game market in general is filled with people who don’t even want anything to do with reality and have poor taste/judgment. The masses are easy to fool and sell on garbage, as long as it is shiny and colorful. There is negative incentive for any companies to actually demand quality, because the target market is always a majority of inane muppets and idealism filled copium/hopium addicts.
Huxley was right!
