Discovered a new Flight Path!
Fuck.So college is ending soon, Im heading into my last semester as a junior and sooner or later Ima have to get my ass out in the world. Im pretty set on becoming a game designer so that aint a biggie, but where I want to work is another issue. All the big shot companies I want to work for are based in Tokyo but I dont speak any more japanese than a white jap-wannabe. (Next stop would be Blizzard but with them who knows if i'll get a chance to make my own game or more or less do anything of my own design). Japan looks like a nice option for me but "people" tell me that everyone comes from Asia to America for a job not the other way around. Which honestly to me makes no sense since most of the leading game companies are in fucking Japan. Ofcourse, in Japan i'd have to deal with sexism and risking not getting any where just cuz I got a set up north and not down south. America seems to be catching up in the gaming world but going in a different direction than I really want. Most pure American games are all in it for the shits and giggles or for "educational purposes" (ohh youre so fancy). But I want do make a story out of it. So sorry but Japan =1 Usa =0 as usual. (Slight reference to Anime Expo where Usa team got owned by Japan team) Benefits of going to Japan would be: More schools that are geared to my kind of training. More Jobs of the sort Better chance of working on the kinds of games I want Benefits of staying in LA: Closer to family(?) Slightly higher chance for a job since there arent many WOMEN video game designers I already have some what of a presence, at least with my Profs I dont know maybe SquareEnix just needs to open up shop over here. Its either Tokyo or Los Angeles.. posted by GOTOMonster @ 1:50 PM 0 Comments On Monday, January 4, 2010 at 1:50 PM
So I've gotten back into World of Warcraft (sadly) and back into the ring of Blizzard products and their a many expansions (Starcraft 2, Diablo 3, Burning Leigon, Wrath of the Lich King, Booger of Arthas). And every one right now is sitting on the edge of their seats waiting to see which will come out first, Diablo 3 or Starcraft 2 and its almost as entertaining as watching two snails race. In fact its exactly like watching two snails race, cuz not only will they take an infinite amount of time to get to the finish line but you get to watch as they veer off in various directions, sometimes backtracking, seeing as their minute brains cant comprehend that there just might be a nice little snack at the finish line. I mean, fuck. Starcraft 2 Poker set. Really? You could have been working on the damn game you've been advertising for the past 5 years and you decide to make a fucking poker set? (Tho with my recent addiction to texas hold em, I was greatly tempted...you sneaky bastards) And you, Diablo 3. You and your flaunting about like a street whore, releasing tidbits of footage about each new class, making me believe that there is actually some kind of progress occurring, filling me with false hope! Though I have to admit. This is an ingenious marketing strategy. I heard that WarHammer was advertised like crazy and made a killing just on pre orders then when they were satisfied they gathered what crap they had done so far and kicked it out the door. Greeting the eager players with bugs galore. I trust Blizzard enough to not stoop this low, if anything they do know how to deliver and each of their games has been received with bountyful shrieks from nerds around the world. However, looking around the employment page, Im really tempted to apply and say I'll finish the damn game myself if that makes it come out any faster. posted by GOTOMonster @ 9:52 PM 0 Comments On Sunday, January 3, 2010 at 9:52 PM

About me
So, My name is Goto. Im a addicted gamer who'd probably be found dead one day in her room clutching a mouse and a cup of noodles. Im what people
call, a Zai Nu (在 女). Which is a girl version of a lazy person who sits eats sleeps and poops, at home while playing video games all day.
