The future of Pascal as language for games

[LP]

Now, I'll be the first to agree it could definitely use optimization in the cases of the graphics - but considering what it gives back to the pascal community, I would say it is revolutionary in a sense, only that its applications are limited and clearly not suited to games.

I agree on this and would also add that all "revolutionary" technologies when first appeared, had issues in one part or another. For instance, it took several revisions of DirectX for Microsoft to get it "right" and early versions were quite troublesome to work with.

The future of Pascal as language for games

Pascal is the most aesthetic and usable language ever, so future of it won't change. Only aesthetes and coders will use it, not mainstream And under "coders" I mean "people who find great pleasure in the art of Computer Programming"(c) Urban Dictionary.
