[Twitch] WWDC recap, Zen Garden & Metal API for iOS 8 - June 5, 2014

Congrats on the Zen Demo. Watched the keynote live and was delighted to see something from Epic!

Questions

Do you think APIs like Metal and Mantle will replace higher level graphics libraries like OpenGL and DirectX over time?

What does Metal mean for the users of engine besides the significant performance increase? Will anything change or is the integration “hidden” in the engine?

Is there any feature that suddenly became viable on mobile that wasn’t before or is it “just” a nice performance boost (still hoping for dynamic shadows sometimes :D)?

Thanks! Looking forward to the stream!
