Where does the gaming art engine exist? This stand alone focuses on the idea of battling hell and conquering the world with games. Games are power. Games are money. Games are respect.
The best engines sell more copies and change things. Doom created Quake. Civilization defined turn based strategy. Age of Empires introduced more history and real time strategy. Playstations created gaming football, or at least mastered it. The Wii allows you to golf in perfect motion. The X-Box allowed Microsoft to edge the market on Playstation. Sega outdid itself too much, went game, then went with art.

The game engine exists to entertain. Sometimes you get sick of watching and want to act. You cannot just sit in front of your TV. I personally hate Television. There are times I consider gaming waste too. This is all about time; you can save time, you can burn time, and you can enjoy time. The best engines are the originals. The best engines create money the market. You invest with every game you buy. You invest in your mind and you might be able to one day sell the game. Some games are worth more to be played than to be sold.
The game engine should bring you something. All this coding helps somehow. It burns time. It saves you money. It allows you pleasure. Pleasure can be won. Money can be won. This is all philosophy at this point, but you must dance with philosophy. If you call too much, you simply must dance with philosophy.
Doom is an interesting game. Created by id, the game allows you to kill demons. This sounds simple. You get a blaster, you get a soldier, and you get to travel through demonic space. Doom is art. All games are art. If you play enough, you are creating art. You are allowed to play the game your way, with your art, and find ways to beat the engine. Doom is much like an arcade game -- you play it too much you get nightmares and lose days of sleep.
Civilization came to me abut the same time as Doom. I preferred Civ. Less nightmares. You get to control a civilization from its dawning to the time man can reach space. This is a tough thing; I speak of this game much because it pretty much taught me the PC. I knew very little about computers before I played Civilization. This was early in gaming.
Age of Empires may not be the first real time strategy, but it allowed strategy gaming to take a different course. Age of Empires allows gamers to win with power; you build a military. It’s all weapons and death, right? Wrong: you build a civilization and live with the fact you cannot make many allies. The real world is like this, and the engine works in this format.
Where do you go next?
I would say gaming controls the PC. It allows us to invest money into computers. This brings jobs. This is oddly sounding, but you must consider the fact some of us learn computers simply to play games. I learned computers to play games, then I began to find ways to make money on the computer. There are many ways to make money off gaming, but you might value it for simply having fun.
This is not the end of money, time, and effort spent on gaming.
