All benchmarks are informative, also all benchmarks are imperfect and incomplete, for reasons you have specified and many others.
However it is a mistake to then suppose that nothing can be known and just go ahead and use Python to make a AAA first person shooter.
- Mikeb85 5y agoOn the flipside slow languages (Python included) are used to script some AAA games. And no language other than C++ has really found traction for stuff like engines; not even Rust...
- loeg 5y agoWhat AAA games use Python?
- Verdex 5y agoI think Eve Online uses python.
- gameswithgo 5y agoThey do, and its caused them a lot of headache, probably was a mistake. If they would have at least used something like C#/Java/Go (go didn't exist at the time) they might not have had to do time-slowdowns to make large battles possible. Then again maybe it would have slowed down development and never gotten off the ground at all!
- dragonwriter 5y agoIIRC, Eve used Stackless Python, not normal CPython.
- planetis 5y agoCiv6 btw
- ryl00 5y agoI thought only Civ IV used python.
