    Step 1. delete photoshop is a reasonable thing to do, whether you are a game developer or not. 😂

    My God THANK YOU SO MUCH for asking to uninstall Photoshop. I hate it with such a passion, I don't know why a program like this happens to be the industry standard, the answer is always "too bad". Now, I hope everyone else I work with follows suit.

    • @Sweepy_Games
      @Sweepy_Games  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Yeah, me too. When I finally uninstalled it, I literally felt relieved. And like I said in the video, I even had some fun using Krita. To be honest, I just keep my fingers crossed that those standards will change for the industry as well.

    I've never understood the philosophy that you have to start from scratch in order to be considered legitimate. The same people who believe that aren't exactly making their computers from scratch. They're effectively outsourcing computer production to others!

    • @Sweepy_Games

      True, looking at it that way, they also didn't build houses where they sit with those computers 😂

      @FiggsNeughton I can tell you why. You need a deeper understanding to make something from scratch. Personally I have no problem with people using frameworks like pygame or engines like unity, but in reality they are a substitute for real programming knowledge (as an example).
      To continue with this example, all things being equal I'd rather learn assembly or c++ and make things from scratch because it requires a massive knowledge of coding in comparison. But that's just me, and in the end it would probably take years. Naturally I don't have the luxury to spend years on something like that, so I will make use of other people's work (frameworks, engines etc.) but I think you can tell what my preference is.

    • @FiggsNeughton
      @FiggsNeughton Před měsícem

      @@r.e.4873 But why would you care about someone's depth of programming knowledge? When you're watching your favorite movie, does it bother you that the director didn't build their camera from scratch, and instead went to a store and said "mmm I'll take that one" ? Thinking that you have to learn to program in assembly (!!!!!!) in order to make a game condemns you to remaining a hobbyist... games are already hard enough to make without hamstringing yourself with an illogical purity spiral. When I play a game, I want a meaningful experience. The last thing on my mind is the depth of programming knowledge that some poor dev had. If you have a gift for game development then you have an obligation to show us what you can do, not putter around with assembly!

      Alright, and now for the serious reply. This was not the kind of content I was looking for, nor is it the kind of content I currently need. But I can appreciate the fact that this video deals with things not directly related to the game development process itself, but instead focuses on often overlooked aspects of game development: tools necessary for promotion/marketing and localisation. When you're making games for a living, as opposed to just as a hobby, there's more to it than just your game engine, code organisation, asset creation etc. At some point you need to sell the game too, and that whole process is often not even talked about.

    • @Sweepy_Games
      @Sweepy_Games  Před 2 měsíci +6

      I didn't learn from paid courses. At first, I learned from CZcams. The skills I acquired from CZcams were enough to land me a job in the industry. Then, I learned a lot from my coworkers on the job. And the techniques you can see in this exact video, I learned on my own. Mainly because at work, I was pushed towards more mainstream programs like Adobe Photoshop. Now, I've discovered that there are easier programs to use to finish the game on your own.

    That animation that a kid made would only be criticized by someone who never watched Ian Hubert's stuff (the inspiration is quite evident and predominant).
    Note something about the sorts of indie games that succeeded and the sorts of AAA titles that failed:
    Indie titles that succeeded are _fun_ and push boundaries of morality: Palworld is a slavery simulator (more so than Pokemon, and better executed). Helldivers 2 is Starship Troopers: the game (making colonialism fun). I'm not saying this to discredit them, these are fun games. On a similar vein, derivative games like Stellar Blade ("Korean NieR") are getting a lot of hype just because the content is "forbidden" by the morality police.
    Meanwhile, AAA games are highly polished turds that tick a bunch of boxes for "representation". There is a reason why overpaid and overemployed big studio writers are scared of ChatGPT taking their jobs, and they should.
