For where they are today, they got rid of UT so it wouldn’t compete with fornite. So I don’t even give them any positive thoughts for that legacy.
Also iirc it was one of the few games that targetted linux compatibility back in the day, but epic has more recently taken a “fuck linux” stance and from what I understand deliberately prevents it running on linux via proton (“from what I understand” because it might just be the kernel level anti-cheat bs, but iirc he’s said things like all linux users are just trying to cheat). So he can keep his free games and while I would like to see someone actually compete with Valve, I hope some fortnite players wake up and stop spending money on dumb mtx shit so epic goes under.
As an old ass gamer who is fond of Unreal Tournament, I sure hate what Epic has become.

At first I was kinda offended that they turned their backs on the unreal franchise in such a disrespectful way.
But at this point that feels right. Current Epic doesn’t deserve to be associated with Unreal.
