For those who can afford to their own engine dev, It rebalances the financial incentives to do so by making the overall costs more attractive. For those who would never be capable of creating/managing their own game engines, It continues to increase how comprehensive of an offering UE island provide you with access to functionality that would otherwise be beyond your means. I'm still surprised haven't heard of them going after SideFX or Foundry, but it's not hard to see why RAD Gaming Tools would be exactly the kind of thing they would want (Bink video & Kraken compression of Quixel Megascans for everyone who uses UE is an obvious use case). If you are Ubi or EA or Capcom or a first party studio etc etc, you can afford to have a team of people who will either create or scan assets for high quality terrain - for developers “lower” on the spectrum, then that is more of a higher commitment proportionally and this purchase is definitely something that can you. A good example of where their help will be needed will be in next-gen games where asset creation cost for the increased graphics will be higher.
