It's been a while since I posted one of these, so I asked <b>Jan Beuck</b> of <a href="http://www.master-creating.de/">master creating</a> to <a href="http://www.rpgcodex.com/content.php?id=53">whip up a CRPG design element editorial</a>. So, he was nice enough to do one, unlike some other developers I could mention that said they would but haven't. *cough*<b>Eric Dallaire</b>*cough*
<br>
<br>
Anyway, here's a clip of it:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>Although game technology is a term 3D shooters would like to reserve, every game has an engine. Although great gameplay is by far the most important point to make a great game, graphics and sound are the most important suppliment. Game technology is even more: It´s not only what you see and hear, it also plays a major role for the gameplay itself. A good example is a physics engine - it´s invisible, but it can make the gameplay better through a more interactive world. And yes, maybe more realistic, but that´s not really the point - if you ever shot at a barrel you know it doesn´t move even an inch (and it also doesn´t explode, even if it´s filled with green slime). Instead the bullet flies straight though it. By the way, they also fly though car doors, so never try to hide there like in a Hollywood movie.</blockquote>

Hiding behind overturned tables in a cafe would also be a bad idea.
