From my limited exploration and talk with Justin over at http://www.kinematicsoup.com, the requirement for low latency combined with a lot of large binary data requires different approaches.

The quake3 netcode is eventually consistent and always reminded me of CRDTs. https://fabiensanglard.net/quake3/network.php

I was thinking exactly about q3a when I wrote the question!

That's a great question.

One of the differences is real-time games do motion prediction, to hide latency. I haven't heard of editors doing so.

Arguably not an “editor”, but I think the mosh shell input does something like this.

Good question, but it could be responded to by writing a thesis.

We frequently joke in our company that we'd love to write a thesis on OT and get a better academical grade ;).
