I’m learning recently that there are many people in the world of game development, or even regular Tech careers who are pretending to be one of whatever they are doing. What I mean is they act like a programmer, web designer, or game developer, but they do not truly, either believe they are one, or love it at all.
If you are in game development, or your career, for anything other than the love of it, you are on the wrong path. Don’t take this road, it is an unhappy mess for you. Nothing will satisfy you if you do. Choose what you love, not what is the new awesome thing everyone else acted like they loved in college. Take the world by the face by understanding yourself and what you truly want and leave the careers to others that you do not love. You will enjoy life a ton more, be something, but be something for real, not for money, or popularity.
