Cyberpunk hero Tim Sweeney vibe-codes demise of cyberpunk villain Tim Sweeney

Epic Games has launched a revamped storefront that the article says was built with AI-assisted “vibe coding”, and users have reported glitches. The piece argues that the move, promoted by CEO Tim Sweeney, has damaged the store’s credibility as Epic seeks to compete with Steam.

It gives no figures for the reported problems or their financial impact. The author links the launch to staff cuts and a recent Steam update, and uses the episode to criticise AI coding and Epic’s strategy; these assessments are presented as commentary rather than independently established findings.
