Industry Review

So, for some people who know me or may not know me, i'm intending to make it big in the game industry, but i'm not looking at working for a big time or big name firm in the game industry. Well, it's either the GEN Y push that's making me have this drive since i was small or my experiences in working. Eitherway, one thing i can compile to make a successful business i intend to build.

Firstly, there should be openess. There will be a time to slack and there will be a time to work. They should not go together, unless, well, you consider work to be slacking, heh. Which in some ways will work. For me i enjoy modelling as a part time thing, but i don't intend to do it forever. so yeah.

Secondly, your problem is my problem. If you're not happy, i'm not happy. Simple enough to understand. If you are not happy it would not be in my interests to keep you unhappy, since you would probably do crummy work.

Thirdly, inspiration can come from anywhere. In this industry, we actually incourage people to have extended vacations and what nots as it gives opportunity to relax and at the same time have an inspiration to do other things.

Fourthly, try everything, and choose something you like. If you like rock climbing, why not incoperate that as an idea.

Fifth, one of the important things, ETERNAL FREEDOM, it's something i define as. The freedom to choose where to work, to choose what you want to work on, though sometimes you have to do things you don't like, the freedom to give something a chance.

Sixth, money should not be a factor or a driving force, it should be passion. If you love it, you will work for it, if not then it's not worth working for.

Lastly, and the most important, and is my personal philosophy, if you like your work, you will excell. No point on working on something you don't like. it doesn't make any sense. Have the dream and work towards it.

Mine has always been to be a leader. To create a company well known for games that step out of the boundary and make it big. That is something most companies lack these days. Even yes, dare i admit? Big companies. They neglect proper gameplay for graphics. Which in someways, maybe good, but in others, that just makes the game more of an eyecandy than anything else.

I love games and i love business, that's why i want to merge my both my loves together and making something big in the future. Who knows, perhaps it may grow into something successful.
