Making a PC game / starting a game company?
Just curious about insights into this. Reason I ask is I see a lot of people on the boards who work as programmers as well as modders and other forms of IT gurus. A lot of people here are clearly passionate about gaming (you almost have to be to overcome the steep learning curve of Dom 3). Then considering the fact that (AFAIK) Dom 3 is the product of 2 people with other jobs makes me wonder why more people have not tried to create a game. Seems most people have a vision of the perfect game but not many ever bother to try to make it. As I have no background in programming, I can only imagine how difficult it must be to actually execute on such a vision but curious if any folks here have ever contemplated it (obviously the Ilwinter guys have but any others?). After all, in the US more money is now spent on video games than movies...
Happy Monday!
