eli5 why do games have so many dll files?
In: Technology
Games do not “have” .dll files, they “are” the .dll files.
DLL files are libraries of purpose-related programs. A game is a very complicated assembly of those programs, therefore it requires many libraries to serve different purposes.
You will have a separate dll for network, graphics, sound, input, disk interface, etc. Everything that happens in the game is coded in one of those.
