Weighing in on the "vibe-coded game engine" debate, gdechichi argues both camps are wrong from first principles: the pre-AI camp said don't build an engine, just use Unity — but engines were always buildable, people just didn't know how. The post-AI camp claims a vibe-coded next-gen engine will work if you spend enough tokens — it won't. A representative AI-circle argument about vibe coding's limits in systems-level engineering.
