    As someone who is a few years into a full time carrer in games I think you've hit on nail on the head. This video is a great educational tool for anyone thinking of going into games. Great stuff!

      Thank you for watching and commenting, and I'm sorry to hear it! It'd be a beautiful world if working on games was just like making them!

      Hey Dj, I was watching Johns video and just subscribed to his channel and spotted your comment. I’m looking to build relationships with gaming developers as I I’m associated with some the fasted growing GameFi companies so always looking to speak with you people in the space. Would you be open to talking about aaa crypto gaming?

    Very professional breakdown of the industry

    Geez...I've seen some universities' Computer Science department have used game programming as a talking point in undergraduate recruitment. When I pursued Computer Science, I definitely read some anecdotes about the seasonality and the long hours associated with the field. The talking point is not fake, but pursuing Computer Science for the sole purpose to become a game developer could be ill-advised.
    Perhaps you could react to some universities' recruitment materials.

      Do you really want to see me cry on camera? :) I'm sure the marketing is doing its job of enticing people with things that aren't exactly false, but aren't exactly true in their implications, either.
      If you have some stuff you want me to take a peek at, happy to!

      @@TheDeliberateEngineer No, I don't want to see you losing composure in front of the camera. :) It's so ironic that we could not grasp the extent of the professions without the education.
      What's the best way to suggest future topics? Comments may not allow links.

      Search for post-mortems on games that you know, or from people who are indie game publishers (e.g. for app store). I used to really like the articles on gamasutra about this, and if you search you can find people describing their experiences writing and releasing indie games, and how financially disappointing it usually is.

    I read an article on gamasutra more than a decade ago and realized game development is not for me. Reading about the working conditions turned me off game development career path completely.

    Hi sir, I’d like to talk to you to get more information about working in the industry. I’m pretty new to game development and graphic design. So basically I want to hear your input on what would be a better choice to make

    • @TheDeliberateEngineer

      I don't think I can help you with that decision. You'll be best off talking to someone who had to make the same decision recently, or to two people, one who chose each way. Good luck!
