This has to be some of the dumbest marketing I’ve seen from Epic in a while, nobody gives a shit about saving 5 seconds on launch hahaha

And admiting you vibe code your store launcher is not the flex you think it is. Especially when people are split on AI. The logical conclusion is they also have AI customer support, best skip their shitty store.

It's such a weird marketing too. Because they don't actually vibecode their launcher. 

Their PR teams must be drinking that AI coolaid. Hoping they will go trending for "vibecode"

Epic openly courted NFT games as well, they're desperate to cling to any tech trend in the hopes that being an early supporter of something that explodes will give them a second Fortnite.
