Hey, everyone! This week there won't be much. I'm here in San Francisco and I'm a little tired and stuff from all the stuff. So much stuff. So here is an update, because a promise is a promise.
Alright, so I am here at GDC! Finally! It's been fun. Basically non-stop talks and parties all week. My friends here have been busy trying to keep me occupied going to these mixers and trying to meet people. So far, I got to meet some cool folks from Blizzard, Amazon, and even someone from Harmonix (wasn't expecting that). However, no leads on a job. Sorry, folks. A few of my friends got lucky, but there wasn't much in the way for designers it seems. However, I know last year a ton jobs opened up after GDC, so that may be my main focus next week. In the mean time, I have to talk to as many people as I can.
One more thing before I go. VR, it's gonna be big. Really big. Like, 3/4 of the expo floor is covered in VR. Talks, seminars, and most topics are covering VR. Sadly for me I'm not developing for VR, and I am moving away from the place that I would have access to the dev kits. But the way it's being talked about here, I wouldn't be surprised if I had to take a job in that. Which would be cool, but not my cup of tea. I will say though, Bullet Train. That game is freaking dope. So much pew pew, I got to try it out at the Nvidia booth yesterday. So maybe there is some hope yet for this gimmick. Super short update this week. Take care!
