Quote from Pampers

fixed

so a series of broken images to a remixed rendition of the half life 2 soundtrack?

why don't you just switch tech then?

Quote from Skjalg

the non gaming thing is probably the VR goggles right?

didn't know valve were working on their own version of those, i thought it was carmack only?

half life the movie dota 2 the movie etc.

btw if you're there and have time go check out the conquistadors booth, they're buddies of mine and their game is actually pretty cool

Downside of working in an office: you must wear clothes.

haaaaaaaaaaa yeah we got this gag going

game is hardly brilliant, most of the dialogue has nothing on the original fallout games, plus the dead-eye stare from the NPCs is always like a thrill ride into the uncanny valley. it's a good game, but not one you can really play multiple times. or at least i haven't touched it since i played it through the first time. new vegas was better, it had a lot of more familiar elements and some of the characters there were actually pretty cool (it also took elements from van buren, which was a nice addition).

Moving to London later this month, which is gonna be AWESOME. That's the other great thing about working from home, you can work wherever the fuck you like.

this is actually the only pro i see about working from home. i could sit on a beach in thailand and work if i wanted (though my computer would probably overheat )

Quote from 3Dnj

Don't worry, I'm prepared. I already did my studies in a foreign country really far from home. But it's actually not the best moment to move I think. But If I don't find my way, I'm still prepared to move anyway.

well if you're just waiting for the right moment, then try to see if you can pick up a position like dux'.

i skimmed it over, i was mostly interested in how you used war for your theory. i did the same for another paper, where i focused on balance in games. i'm not one to give advice on papers, though, so i don't really have anything.

been working off-site for just about 3 months as a LD. there's been a few times when i've met with studio folks to work with them in a studio atmosphere but this has been limited. personally i would prefer having to work at the studio rather than work from home, but that's more likely because i've always set myself up so that my home is related to everything non-work related.

anyway it hasn't been bad, conference calls on skype solve most of the problems and there isn't that much else to it. our lead programmer is not impressed with how things are, however. i do sort of miss the life of a studio and the way you can take 5 min breaks to check out what other people do. i get inspired from shit like that so it helps me focus better on my own task. then comes the question of relationships between people at work, which are REALLY weak when you haven't met the people in person.

as for friends and everything, everything in denmark is pretty closely stitched together, so there isn't really anything you're leaving behind... at least for as long as you live on the same island. but as far as i know the industry doesn't really cater to the home atmosphere and job security most other industries offer, so chances are if you want a better job you'll have to move someplace else. i'm prepared for this, because this is my passion.

Quote from Pampers

tried playing fallout new vegas [Blocked Image: https://migrationtest.mapcore.org/public/style_emoticons/default/mapcore_smilies/emot_shakehead.gif]animation is so bad, the art is bad and really out of scale

yes what a terrible game that was for it's bad, out of scale art. let's vote it 1.0 on metacritic since it, as a game with bad art assets, has absolutely no merits.

i like what you've written about your dissertation, i did something similar for mine

dare i even ask what that is?

Quote from Serenius
