[futureanimatior]

I don't know much about software but I do know people can start out as game testers and advance into a game designer so college is not needed for game design. If you wanna be a character designer or game artist pretty much the only thing that you need is good art skills. A big plus is to be some type of illustraitor for a few years most game concept artist are former comic book and manga artist. But i'm sure it's possible to get a job with them without being any kind of illustraitor.

[predatortheme]

@futureanimatior

no, a game tester cant become a game designer, a game tester plays the games and writes reports. a game designer must be heavily skilled in art, 3d design or programming......

[futureanimatior]

@predatortheme Not true lot of game designers are former game testers. And no they don't have to be heavy skilled in art they have to be good on computers and skilled at 3D design. Concept artist however have to be very skilled in art on both pencil and computer such as photoshop. Game Designers also have to have great writing skills like extreamly good writing skills.

[predatortheme]

@futureanimatior

not me, i m just modeler /mapper on source :D

[mangafool]

@futureanimatior Now, I have a question. When you say writing skills for Game Designers; are you talking about writing code, or are you talking about writing on paper?

[futureanimatior]

@mangafool Writing code but you also have to know how to write game scripts.

[DreaDxKiller]

Yeah i agree YoursTruelyMe2 If there is anyone Setting up a Company, I Would love to Join to make Games, Im working on Games Design softwares and Hoping to get Better at it :)

[TawanaiGachou]

I like how from 0:09 and on he was totally reading off of something.

[mathew19648]

Hey its DBZ and thats Goku!

[YoursTruelyMe2]

Forget working for Bungie. Don't be so determined to work for someone else. Start your own company and build it to be bigger than Bungie.

[hotsonetti]

@YoursTruelyMe2 Although, I'd say it's highly recommended to work at a big studio for few years and learn how the industry works.

[Distrub122334]

@YoursTruelyMe2 how do you begin a company?? i know your comment is 90 days old but can you help me out how do you start a company and make it work like so wont be a down fall thanks man :D

[YoursTruelyMe2]

@Distrub122334 Depending on what type of business your starting the first thing your going to want to do is start researching right now. Educate yourself on everything you could possibly know about the area you plan to go into, once you know you should go to the local court house and get a business license, permits, copywrite your name, depending on what your trying to start some things will be different and vary by state. One book I would suggest: Entrepreneur Magazine "Start Your Own Business"

[futureanimatior]

@YoursTruelyMe2 Very true man that's what the creator of Pokemon did. He created Game Freak, which is very popular now.

[CobraPliskin64]

@YoursTruelyMe2 Well of course starting your own company would be the most desirable ideia. The thing is.. its not as easy as u make it sound mate lol

[immy908]

@YoursTruelyMe2 ohhh No you just did not say that.

[YoursTruelyMe2]

@immy908 Oh I think I did.

[Bullet7314]

@YoursTruelyMe2 Right on

[slyhammer123]

[lilb0y09]

[Jessicainess]

[kevinmarielove]

[OnlyStupidUsernames]

@martin

[DarknessRevoDC]

[126644]

also they are kinda right making a next gen. video game is a team effort even with a team of developers it will take you years

[Farley1993]

theres no way you could make a nex gen game by yourself, theres so many jobs, programming, character design, level design ect it would just take to long. even if you did manage to make one only 20% or something stupid like that actually get published.

[zeno144]

My advice would be always to research about it until you get to collage to take some good classes, and in school learn about computers and designing as much as you can.

[Youshless]

Games development is generally (even on small casual titles) a team based process. This is down to several things, including:

- Diverse and focused skill sets: 1 person will never have the ability of multiple specialists

- Solid concept: 1 persons ideas may be good, but with more constructive input the game can be so much more.

Basically, its more efficient, effective and fun to work in a team. If you want to do it all on your own, I would suggest that the games industry isn't for you!

[Distrub122334]

@Youshless yousdhless i know your comment is like 120 days old but can you help me out what does it take for a game designer what do i have to do like whats the first step to get started on it thanks :D hope you replay

[Youshless]

@Distrub122334 Hi, well I would say that you need a lot of passion and determination! It's a really tough industry, but one that can be super gratifying and fun one your in.

What's your forte? Where does your passion lye within games?

Playing Games?

Art?

Programming?

Designing?

Producing?

Probably better to PM me, as this isn't really functional ;-)

[chakalaka80]

start learning programing c++ and modeling and animating in 3d with Autodesk Maya and 3dmax. Also learn how to draw.

Start practicing doing mods for games. team up your friends to help.
