[edit] Epic Games

Question, how are they related to Unreal/Epic Games? Were they an outsorce developer? thx--sin-man 09:09, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Sort of, I believe they are hired to help with level design -- most of the good levels found in Unreal and the UT series are from DE's crew. By comparison, the less inspiring designs seen in the Na Pali expansion and Unreal 2 were done by Legend Entertainment. So yeah, DE deserves a lot of credit for the success of Unreal and UT. Epic, with perhaps the exception of CliffyB, mostly just builds the engine technology. I can't be sure but I think DE also did other creative work such as making the game's mutators and character models. Ham Pastrami (talk) 11:10, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
