I've noticed a lot of top Game Development companies list knowing a scripting language as a valuable asset to have.
I have a few questions on this topic, so I'll make it a little easier than reading a block of text.
1) What role do scripting languages play in the development of top teir games?
2) Are they commonly used outside of big game companies?
3) What is a concrete example of a scripting language inside of top teir games and what specifically are they used for?
That's about all I can think of at the moment, if you think of something else that may be relevant to this topic, please share it so I can understand.
Thanks
