Re: Kotaku: "Five Things I Didnt Get About Making Video Games (Until I Did It)"
@stickadtroja This does become an issue when you talk about Kickstarter and early access when customers are actually riding along with the creative process. If the only interaction a customer is experiencing is the end result (like food) then the customer shouldn't care what the developer says as excuses. But if you decide… -
Re: TED talk from videogame animator Tom
I was talking to another artist on twitter the other day about Art and Fear, which is a fantastic book on just this subject. He and I where both remembering what it was like to read it and think "Everyone else feels these things too?!" Understanding these mental blocks that nearly all creatives face can give you so much… -
Re: Be friends with Failure
That was inspiring but there is one element that rarely gets a mention "the obsessive drive to be a success". I know many talented musicians who destroyed their self esteem trying to "make it" and lost all the joy of creativity in the process. No doubt it is the same within the art world, failure is how we learn and… -
Re: Hard Hat Games - Looking For Some Spots To Fill
Hello Rodan, 1. The program is up to the artist but the format would have to matter as we are using UDK and UDK is known for not liking certain formats. 2. The style would have to be the style we are looking for (Which is Realistic) but as for the concepts and designs, there is creative freedom as everyone can have amazing… -

Re: Heroes that need LOD0 item poly budget improvements
A bit out the theme, but i'd like to see opportunity to add solid item sets. Without breaking on different parts with one texture map and one poligonal budget. This will give a lot of space for creativity and solve all "budget problems". Especially this is actual after latest drop-system changes, since players now receive… -
Re: Dominance War delayed until 2011.
Man, bummer. Especially as someone who entered in to UC 2009 does it especially suck. If we do anything here, it will be a challenge and not a contest (re: no prizes to win). I won't be ready to set things up for prizes until well after the new site has launched, so for now we'll run some creative challenges for you guys… -
Re: Motivation to work when you get home
If you already have your job doing gameart/other creative stuff that keeps you busy/happy why would you want to force yourself to work additional 5 hours on top of 8 you've already worked? It's fun to do personal stuff, but when you actually have to seek motivation and force yourself it stops being fun, doesn't it? So,… -
Re: Inception mindfuck discussion *SPOILERS*
Also the one of the direct impressions left on me by this one is a 50/50 split that the directors motive was: A) I've made a many questionable parts of the film because the whole narrative is deep and promotes creative participation in this story. or B) I've made many questionable parts of the film because it's so cool and… -
Re: Choosing gift for 3D artist
IMHO...the best gift for a hard working creative is really something totally unrelated artistically, so yeah @Geezus comment is right on track :) Now dependant upon your location alternatives alongside pricing may vary, anyhow here's my selection: https://www.redballoon.com.au/gifts-for-him/men EDIT: Ahem...there seems to…
