No, he isn't. At least Epic is there too.
With the rising of OSX the chance is not too small that OpenGL will survive,
and that drivers (at least from companies with unified-driver code)
will be higher quality than they are now.

The problem are most of the time unexperienced developers as well as
not-portable frameworks used.
Those frameworks have been used ofter the past years.

If you choose the right technologies at project start, portability
comes for free.
