Is working as a video game developer really that bad?

It's better than most jobs. Devs are just crying little cunts.

They just want you to think it is, lots of jobs in the tech industry have an internet diversionary force to keep their wages high and Chads out.

So they let him drag all that shit in and he stays there working all day in exchange for just buying an apple pie and a drink?

that depends are you white?

>special snowflakes and mentally ill "people" that will try to shit on your game for whatever fucking reason.
Yea Forums in a nutshell

Going indie just means you have to deal with the insane autistic playerbase directly instead of through multiple layers of low level tards

Not a developer room
It's actually pretty diverse aside from Asia
Partly true, actually
Shut the fuck up
That's more of the directors problem

It actually is pretty bad. The pay is great but the pressure to meet deadlines is actually pretty tough.

yeah apparently the staff don't care

>Not a developer room
But it is, he sits there and devs

Do they give him whoopies for free?

>pressure to meet deadlines is actually pretty tough
That's literally almost every job, plus shit pay.

I used to work as an internal auditor for Take Two, I wouldn't say it's specifically bad as a job. Plenty of people in the developer industry have crunch hours and all that jazz. Video game developers more due to the cyclical nature of the job. It however is a lot more stressful to be specifically a video game developer because job security is basically nil. You have NO expectation to still have a job after you finish a project. While this is the case in other companies as well, somewhere like Google or Amazon would very likely find you a new team to move to or a small startup would want to keep all their employees so they don't sustain high turnover.

The BIGGEST problem is that as a video game developer, with your skill set, you are being paid 50 to 60% what you would be paying at literally any other company unless you work as a graphic designer. It's a passion tax, they know you want to work your dream job so no one is going to offer you much. Also since there is so much lateral movement, plenty of people are going to be available to hire as a replacement.

I hope he didn't kill himself yet

yes, no matter what you do, theres allways some entitled brats feeling the urge to stalk your privat non-work related social media because in their world they are somehow so special that they deserve to get everything they want.

They have to deal with niggers jumping around like baboons and shit and mexicans bringing in their entire family of 10+ spiclets, you think they care if some NEET hides in the corner?

Is it the hardest job you've ever had? Also as a side note, any advice for people in school for CS or recent grads?

I guess but it still sucks how much workload there is. I think good management could balance workload and deadline but for game developers it's just kind of piled on and people are expected to work miracles. There are a lot of times where very hard work gets thrown away because of design changes. It's really dumb.

Some of those bullet points just outright contradict each other.
Then again, it's a white college girl attacking her own ethnicity so that is to be expected.

>any advice for people in school for CS
switch an actual specialization like network security or engineering
>recent grads?
wipe your ass with your diploma unless you went to a well known school

Switch to what though? Everything else is boring to me. Even computer engineering isn't all that exciting to me. Would double majoring in CS/Math help?

>going to school to get a CS degree

What meme? CS is a meme compared to what?
