With the more and more complex technology for games has become over time,
the decreasing interest of students/amateurs wanting to get into game
industry to learn DirectX/OpenGL and preferring to use an existing game
engine instead, the increasing popularity and accessibility of TorqueEngine=
,
CrystalSpace, etc among students/amateurs/indies, and big corporate
companies like EA, etc. licensing UnrealEngine3 for their next-gen games...

What are the future trends for commercial game engines? Will there be a tim=
e
were game studios will no longer create their own home-made game engines an=
d
buy existing licenses (as we do today with Maya/3DSM)?  Will there be a day
were it won't be worth for students to learn Dx/Ogl and how to create their
own engine?, and where game development schools will focus on teaching how
to use a specific game engine like UE3 (as there are animation schools toda=
y
to teach Maya/3DSM) and focus their curricula on other areas of game
development not game-engine-related? Can eventually this day come someday?

And if so=85 how soon or how far do you think we are until that day comes?
