Re: If you suddenly had the urge to give up being a games artist....
I've also thought about doing this for a while for a "fall back" plan. My extended family are all farmers and I have sooOOome exposure to it, even though I've never done it on a daily basis. Actually, all I've ever done when visiting was get chased by chickens after feeding them...crazy bastards. But I actually enjoy… -
Re: Why is the game industry model broken?
Haha Coo way to totally misread my point man. I know very well that many good games sell poorly, and that's a shame. I am just saying that almost all the time, the best selling ones also happen to be very good at what they do. Now of course some smart marketing can always push some more units of a stinker through the door,… -
Re: Layoffs hit EA, company 'not disclosing specific teams impacted'
yea it seems a bit cyclical. although I would expect it to be halfway through the next gen for the true leaders to emerge in this market in terms of small studios having a good success and getting up to medium/large size. and the proceeding to be bought by big publishers and itll happen all over again. Those are the kinda… -
Re: What's Your Current Cd Rotation?
[ QUOTE ] Green Day - American Idiot (punk normally bores the hell out of me. but this is an album I can chill out to. good mix of tunes for the post-Blink182-shit-trash-crap era. i feel guilty calling it punk, it's that good.) *hides* [/ QUOTE ] Oi! You'd better hide! But seriously, I used to be a serious metal head in my… -
Re: Tech Artist - What are you working on: FOREVER Edition!
I really like the idea of Voxels, especially for a simple stylised game, but in Flash especially, from what I've seen pushing enough voxels for a proper game level isn't realistic. When I feel like it, I'll try and get a decent Voxel count running at 60fps on an average rig, though I'm not sure it's possible, especially… -
Re: Hashtha
yep that is why i post here and will work on the issues you pointed out. on a story telling note there is a specific reason why i gave her mammary glands (BOOBS) they serve the same function they do on humans. as she is a sapient race the children are born in an "underdeveloped" state. they are completely dependent on the… -
Re: Being productive with ADD/ADHD/high-functioning autism
So, you don't think people getting 40 different prescription meds in their tap water messes up their brain function? Most of these drugs were designed with the sole purpose of changing brain functions, and now they're being mixed. The interactions between the drugs cannot be overlooked.… -
Re: Man dies during childbirth
[ QUOTE ] Uhm, Elysium, tell your 'epidurals are no good' sentiments to my daughter. I expect five hundred words by the end of class period. Go. [/ QUOTE ] First of all, I said they're "more harm than good". Not to be confused with 'no good at all'. And the fact is, well, it's a fact. Epidurals include many risks to the… -
Re: Quitting smoking
"Just quit smoking" .. sounds great but its soo hard. I smoked for about 6 years. The hardest moments werent the daylife - when you work hard and can forget about cigarettes. The hardest things are the "chill" moments.. when sit outside with friends, when you`re drunk and partying, when you wait for the bus, when you smell… -
Re: Traditional 2D art is... weird
Chill out Blaizer, I know you're a cool dude but you don't need such lengthy posts to justify your tastes. Writing so much about what you like and dislike tends to make you look as if you believe there is only one way one should paint/render things, either for production or just for fine art. I think you are being a bit…
