<div class="IPBDescription">drawing parallels to UWE</div>very good watch and good commentary from a small german development team working on the Witcher 2. They talk about dynamic lighting, using middleware in the development of their game engine, and minimum system requirements and hardware trends (multithreading).

Just thought I'd share, I really enjoyed the Witcher and can't wait for the next game.

    I like how they say there is no point in reinventing things that already work when they're creating a new engine.

    An occasional engine-rebuild every so often is very important given the continues hardware-evolution. You have a point if the final product doesn't differ a lot from what's already out there engine-wise.

    this is rather something you could be ashamed of :P

    I'd like to mention 10tacle studios here but they went bankrupt 2 years ago. There are some good german game companies but they don't produce blockbusters. Except the Anno series
