Exactly.

I recently read an article that explained the whole engine change problem. In a nutshell every time they were ready to release there would be some other "ground breaking" 3D game to come out which would put this on hold. They would then buy that ground breaking engine and start over. And once they were ready, yet again another one would come out and the process repeats.

So them trying to be ground breaking constantly caused delays. At this point they just need to get the game out there. There's no reason they can't just put out a 3 & 4 etc.. with whatever new ground breaking engine comes out. At some point they may repeat history and get one of the versions to be the actual best ground breaking game.

They should have been at Duke Nukem 13 by now, lol.
