So someone is going to make a game with this? By the time it [if] ever comes to market, CD Project is going to be on the next or subsequent engine anyway --
I don't think Carmack was ever any worse for the wear after releasing the Quake engine when Quake II came to market, etc.
No one could use it since trying to release a commercial product using their engine would get the company sued in oblivion. Maybe some Chinese company that doesn't give a fuck about selling it outside of China would do it, but no existing studio would touch it. The only other reason I can think of for someone to buy it is to try to see if there's a way to backdoor some kind of malware into the game so that it spies on you or mines crypto currencies on the GPU while the game is running.
actually I think no existing studio would touch it even if they could do so legally. The so called 'red engine' took 8 years and its disappointing. even the engine that powers gta 3 is more impressive.
