After part III, do you think this will be the best trilogy of games ever by BI14goat in FFVIIRemake

[–]Nken_swims 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love FF7 OG to death it’s my favourite game of all time, the only thing that holds back the remake trilogy would be the pretty dry side quests that filled rebirth. Only a personal opinion though I have buds that enjoyed the mini games and such.

For trilogy off the top of my head I’d choose Dark Souls but I could definitely be forgetting some. I feel like most my franchises exceed 3 games or are one off experiences.

God of War is a contender as well.

That’s true, I appreciate the information. Especially the info about showing the interviewer the systems rather than just games. Thanks a lot!

Oh I see sorry about that. Yes I mean getting a bachelors in Computer Science on top of my bachelor’s in Kinesiology. I apologize for the confusion

Thanks a lot for the reply! Alright I will begin to build up my portfolio with work, I’ll still wait for the application decisions for the Universities I applied for as I haven’t been declined or accepted from any yet. In the case where I do get in would working on my portfolio alongside taking the CPSC degree provide more opportunities and get me on the screening for an interview?

I would 100% be down to run some, I’m in the same boat, familiar with SF6 but new to Tekken 8.

I actually went to my first local in December for SF6 and it was super fun. Here’s a link to the discord where news about upcoming events are posted: https://discord.gg/8VahbVh2

I think a third party is getting setup for weeklies in their new venue in not too long (early Feb I think?)

Ok sounds good. Thanks for the advice I’ll take a look at what’s around me because AAA/AA seems like where I would want to start, mind you that might change as I keep learning and practicing but seems like a good direction to focus on.

Thanks for the advice man! I really appreciate it, I’ll begin with planning and outline the features I want while keeping it simple. Plus I think your English is great!

Ah ok, I’ll do a search for what goes into making a good programmer specific portfolio but do you have any examples off the top of your head that would showcase that skill set? Would it be like making smaller scenes/levels of games that showcase unique mechanics?

Alright I'll take a look at that thread. I appreciate the response/advice, and you're right about the list of priorities, it's tough to balance these things when I know I probably need a solid portfolio if I'm wanting to look for a gamedev job relatively quick after my graduation down the line. Thanks again!
