    So about a month ago, due to complications with one of my roommates, not paying rent at our Apartment, we all got evicted. Ive been living at my parents house again for the last few weeks, picked up a job nearby to make some cash. I have how ever, for the first time in over a year, been more inspired to level design than I have in a long time, so its been pretty interesting. Besides, I get to have mom's home cooking again!

    Its fucking great, and the story is Top Sci/Fi ! <3

    Yeah I just finished this. First horror game ive played in a long time, and not chicken out due to the horror. Not to say it was not tense or scary, I just was so enthused in the environments and story I couldn't stop playing.

    Woke up this morning early, checked the time and saw a text from my mum less than one hour before, informing my grandad passed last night.

    I feel I'm a shit as I haven't seen him in years. Promised to go and postponed several times. Was supposed to go this July but situation was messy (my parents were going to move him in with them, and then he changed his mind).
    I didn't even sent the postcard I bought explicitly for him during holiday, hell... I haven't even wrote it!! :sad:

    Flying home tomorrow at 6am, yes it's absurd but funeral is already sorted I'm lucky I work where I work in this regard.

    I just want to give you my condolences. I love my grandparents and to me, they're a special type of family member, that a mom or dad cant be. I hope the best for your family.


    I got promoted to Manager at my job(spoiler its a TYPICAL FAST FOOD chain) and ive been purposely just working max hours, then working out in my free time, then sleep and repeat. I recently got out of a relationship which was mutual on both parts, but I would of rather it not of ended. With that being so, ive been just distracting my self and staying pre-occupied, but with that, ive lost all motivation to do any type of design. I dont know if im apathetic currently, or just temporarily uninspired? My question, to all of you older dudes, is it uncommon as an artist to just lose interest / their muse to design for periods of time?

    I just applied at a few game company's for a level design position. Finally feel confident enough in my ability to go and reach out. Hopefully ill get some good news. Mean while, my part time job ive had, has some drama going on. There is a lot of hypocritical things that go on via the GM(general manager) and ive been vocal about it, among some other employees and two of the floor managers. Now shes cutting my hours, to below the NYS mandated required amount for a part time job so im contacting the DM(Distract Manager) about this, among some other complaints. Its petty drama, but I need the work, and frankly Ive always had an issue with people getting away with wrong doings.

    So anyone continued watching this? I saw the first episode and thought it was okay, but wonder if it's worth watching the rest?

    Latest episode was so intense and well directed I got an adrenaline high

    So I moved out of my parents into my own place back in early January, and im rooming with 3 of my good friends. Since then I have not been even remotely inspired to work on any level design, and in fact, as of now, almost 6 months into the year, ive only worked on Import(which was technically already a finished map) and made a small environmental scene for a Treyarch Job application. Ive thought about it a lot, on and off, thinking, maybe its just due to me being busy, growing up, living on my own, just life shit etc. Well I got a new roommate, an old friend of ours, who has a similar outlook on life, like mine, of general optimism and just wanting to achieve goals and make shit happen. With this new person in my day to day environment, and this project him and I are going to do in UE4, I find my self excited to work and design things for the first time in months and its just fantastic. As im typing this, im just browsing around on the internet reading about different material studies for post modern designs, while I have UE4 open using PBR. Im just really happy to of found that spark to be creative again. All in all, I hope you all here on mapcore are doing great and stay optimistic, because why live life if all you're going to do is dwell in the mud.
