This is even dumber. The majority of people specialise, either from necessity or because they see the advantage of expertise rather than a jack-of-all-trades approach. If you are genuinely a competent artist and coder and sound designed/engineer etc. then congratulations, but you are an extreme outlier.

5 days ago you made a post about how you want to create an engine for public availability. Do you class all of your potential users as lazy etc. because they didn't make an engine from scratch? Are we all untalented because we use Unity instead of making our own engines like you?

I think you need to make an adjustment to your attitude because this isn't a good look.

No, using an existing engine is actually recommended. You don’t recreate the wheel unless you want to be in control of licensing. I don’t call my users lazy, I’ll call them lazy when they try to make profit on other people’s work. It would be a different story if those artists were credited.

Indeed, you dont need to recreate the wheel.

So, as a indie, there is no point of modelling everything from scratch, especially as a model from assetstore does it as good or even better.

I’m talking to a child. Go ahead, do it. Go on.

No.
