"If an exchange between two parties is voluntary, it will not take place
unless both believe they will benefit from it. Most economic fallacies
derive from the neglect of this simple insight, from the tendency to assume
that there is a fixed pie, that one party can gain only at the expense of
another."
- Milton Friedman

This is the slide deck from my presentation titled "Creating Vast Game Worlds - Experiences from Avalanche Studios" at Siggraph 2012. It covers all sorts of issues you encounter when creating large game worlds, such as floating point precision issues, memory, optimizations, culling etc.
