This is not even true, they rewrote the engine to support native 64-bit precision to let them fit large spaces, they didn’t just make everything small. They basically employ all the people that used to make Cryengine since Crytek went out of business, so the engine they are building is actually pretty good.
I got Ritualist V, lost my first 4 placement matches really badly. Only manages a 2/7 win rate in the end.
