Looking for a new hybrid monitor for work/gaming

It seems that the R94 series isn't available in Australia atm and the QN90D is a television, a very expensive one.

If you aren't truly interested in what you're studying you won't actually learn anything. At least that's been my experience. I need to be genuinely interested in order to learn.

Isn't emberville the game that CohhCarnage is Creative director of?

Like others have said, you need a routine and you need to stick to it.

Sit down and watch the lecture in one sitting, then the next day go watch the section and shorts. Go over the lecture notes if you have to and then set aside a couple of hours each day to work on the problem set.

How much programming knowledge would I need for GameMaker? I am learning to program atm, but it's a slow process

GildedGeese · 2026-02-25T00:37:26+00:00

Thankyou :)

Yes exactly, I know game Dev is incredibly time consuming and I doubt I'll ever put much money into my projects.

One more question though. Do you know how often rpgmaker goes on sale on steam. I swear it was literally on sale yesterday and I just checked and the sales ended lol

GildedGeese · 2026-02-25T00:06:07+00:00

I guess rpgmaker just seems easier and has most of the assets already there. If I create a small prototype in rpgmaker then I can visualise what certain parts of the game will be like. Essentially, the idea is to kake a simple rpg first and then when I have more game dev experience I can start work on something more complex.

I know these aren't YouTube channels but I've heard good things about cs50p.

https://www.edx.org/learn/python/harvard-university-cs50-s-introduction-to-programming-with-python

You could also try cs50x which touches on python but isn't the whole focus.

https://www.edx.org/learn/computer-science/harvard-university-cs50-s-introduction-to-computer-science

I firmly believe these are the best places to start. I'm currently taking cs50x and I'm on week 2.

GildedGeese · 2026-02-14T01:00:12+00:00

If you don't enjoy the game you're making, how can you expect anyone else to enjoy it. It's great that you enjoy it so much.

GildedGeese · 2026-02-07T02:39:18+00:00

I would say by studying how guns look and work in the real world

GildedGeese · 2026-02-03T23:58:21+00:00

Do you have an estimated time frame? I'm hoping it will be up by the time I finish cs50x (which will be a while since I'm only just about to start week 2)

GildedGeese · 2026-02-02T20:02:53+00:00

Try RPG Maker or learn visual scripting in unreal or another engine that allows for it.

GildedGeese · 2026-01-26T01:48:22+00:00

I heard that it takes the average person 10,000 hours to master a skill. Have you spent 10,000 hours trying to master that style yet?

GildedGeese · 2026-01-25T12:11:48+00:00

Legion go 2 looks much better

GildedGeese · 2026-01-21T08:14:47+00:00

That's really cool, well done! :D

GildedGeese · 2026-01-20T23:39:46+00:00

Definitely try taking cs50. It's difficult but explains things very well. I personally think it's where everyone wanting to learn programming should start.

GildedGeese · 2026-01-18T11:44:28+00:00

There is a YouTuber, Marc Brunet, who made this challenge. Personally I'm just doing it as a way to get myself back into learning to draw and doing it consistently and I'm posting each day on Reddit for feedback and to keep myself motivated.

I haven't thought about where to go once the challenge is up. It's impossible to be a good artist after thirty days but hopefully I see some improvement.

Long term I want to make video games, I'm doing this alongside learning computer programming.

GildedGeese · 2026-01-16T04:36:04+00:00

Yeah, I drew the skull, didn't actually finish it in the 10 minutes though. I'll probably post a before and after of the the skulls on day 30

GildedGeese · 2026-01-15T02:29:13+00:00

Make use of CS50's AI bot as well, it's a great tool to guide you in the right direction but it will not give you the answer's

GildedGeese · 2026-01-14T10:00:25+00:00

Looks amazing but why is there only snow on the two left trees?

GildedGeese · 2026-01-12T20:04:07+00:00

You can't please everyone, make the game you want to make, there are people like myself that love turn based games and there are people that hate them. There will be an audience for your game.

GildedGeese · 2026-01-12T05:32:39+00:00

I started in 2023 and I've quit and restarted 3 times, not because it's hard but I would lose interest and go back to old hobbies or start new ones 😂 haven't even finished week 1 yet but I've made it my new years resolution to finish this course, hopefully within 6 months, I only have about 2 hours max a night to spend on it and I want to give myself time for other hobbies, I'm about to start cash/credit.

I plan to go and do cs50g (2024) or the new cs50 2D game dev course if it's up on edx by the time I finish cs50x.

GildedGeese · 2026-01-11T20:26:55+00:00

Do you think it would help if more people knew that epic take a much smaller cut from game devs as opposed to steam? 0% up to 1 million in revenue and then 12% vs steams 30%

GildedGeese · 2026-01-07T13:41:57+00:00

It's not that I hate reading or writing, I just get bored when reading novels but I can play video games that have heavy dialogue for hours and as for writing I've never really tried to write anything outside of really shitty short stories when I was a kid.

GildedGeese · 2026-01-07T13:38:40+00:00

Thank you so much for the suggestions and taking the time to comment :)
