Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't the original Half-Life based on this engine?
So, Counter-Strike wouldn't have existed in this form, and DOTA 2 wouldn't have been made in the engine it was.
Conversely, Warcraft 3 also had a modding scene where DOTA sprung from.
So, probably a lot of Valve's games wouldn't have seen the light of day, and they wouldn't have had the capital to make Steam.
I like your story, but itโs completely wrong ๐
Half Life uses a derivate of the Quake 1 engine called GoldSrc, it has completely nothing to do wit the Far Cry engine, not even remotely
Isn't that exactly what the guy I responded to was requesting info about? The good open sourcing the ID engine did?
Yes and I am an idiot ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
