UE5 was a big part honestly, pretty much lost all interest in getting the game this year when I learned how bad the performance was on PC.

I don't know enough about it to say that UE5 guarantees bad performance, but it seems like every UE5 release this past year runs terribly.

The original UE5 seemed slightly premature, the 5.1 and 5.2 updates were significant and non trivial to update to. It also seems like a tool that gives you enough rope to hang yourself. Unlike Unity, everyone gets ready access to the full engine source code. Fortnite runs UE5, so the performance isn't inherently bad.
