Game framework architecture - view components or MVC?
I have a question for my learned readers - if anyone has an answer, please leave a comment. Here it is:
I'm trying to build a very light reusable framework for my games, rather than starting from scratch each time I start a game. I have a component driven architecture - e.g. Entity model composes a Position component, a Health component, an Ai component, etc.
My big question is whether my model composes view components to allow for more than one view of the model, or whether to use a truer MVC where the model does not know about its views, and they are managed externally.
I have tried both methods but if anyone knows the pros and cons of each approach and which is the industry standard, it would be great to know. I'd particularly like to hear from people who have tried both methods.
