Massive Info Dump on Halo History - My takeaway (Destiny)

Jason Jones ALWAYS insisted on using their own game engine. For him, he liked knowing exactly what was happening. If there was a bug, you knew where it was coming from because you coded it yourself. If you use a commercial engine, you have no idea sometimes what's under the hood or how to fix bugs or behaviors that are wrong for your game.
To be clear, I'm not advocating Bungie use an externally developed engine. Just saying (in an ideal world) it would be better if they were able to have a version of their engine & tools ready to go (included with people experienced using the tools & engine) by the time the content people needed it. At that time the engine & tools developers would have moved on to the next version of their engine.
& I don't disagree w/ Jones' desire to use an in-house engine. It makes a lot of sense in many ways.
