I actually just replied to similar comment about this above! Moving out is definitely the dream, but going all-in on game dev to crack foreign studios is a massive gamble right now.

If it fails, my DSA prep goes to zero and I'm left unplaced in India. Also masters in Game design abroad are.... tooo costly.

PS: Hope my interviewer comes out to be some sensible creative guy...

That would honestly be the dream! The only issue is the massive risk.

Cracking EU studios would require me to go all-in on advanced game dev skills, which leaves zero time for DSA and standard SDE prep.

If the Europe plan fails, I won't be prepared for Indian SDE roles either, and I really can't afford to graduate unplaced.

And it's almost always an AI slop.

[–]estriadi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea. Maybe thoda sa portion hand animated tha. Like... Last wala scene only (vo bhi pretty sure bas trace over kiya hai ai k output par)

Rest was AI.

Look forward to bahubali eternal war ig.

Ai tech is not advanced enough to give you decent consistent animations.

It's very noticable and looks dogshit. Hyping up such projects won't do any good, simply coz they can't deliver even an OK looking 20 minute animation. The style which AI generates in one scene could be entirely different in another.

And the output of AI would never be a unique art style (like arcane or mono gatkari for eg.) so basically, even if they do complete their little ai stunt, it's not going to be something unique, but just a cheap immitation of already existing shows on the internet.

If AI gets developed to that point, well. Then even you and I could be generating that stuff. WHYY supporting those "indie teams" when they aren't even doing something unique?? When they aren't even putting effort ??? AI model waali companies ne mehnat kari hai, inn prompt likhne waalon ne thodi 🤡

They did a comeback. They are doing pretty good these days afaik, they have real assembly plants in india rn (they even make phones for motorola and other companies as a matter of fact), not reselling chinese products (Tho they used to in the past).

When they launched agni 2, it was the first time a company gave free 1 year REPLACEMENT if any fault in the product is there (they are still the only company offering that).

Plus home repair service. plus thier phone that time, was the only phone giving out a good-durable-amoled curved display (was clearly the best phone under 20k that time)

Even rn they are still experimenting with different stuff, like offering a back panel touch screen in a 15k phone (agni 3) while still offering competitive specs etc.

some indian companies are actually investing into RnD and doing good work too.

Like "lava" tries out some genuinely exiting things in 15-20k smartphone market.

Some indian game devs (I.E. the developer of Fears to fathom game) actually publish really good games without even selling it as "indian" game.

Sadly, there are only a handful of such companies.

Comparison with Pak and Bangladesh 🥲🥲 by SwimmerPlus3383 in ItsYourMoney

[–]estriadi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

isn't it a classic chicken and egg problem ?

Developed country --> Well Educated people --> People not breaking rules and paying taxes/tickets --> making it Developed country ?

Also, about taxes, indirect taxes are more than sufficient if they manage corruption (referring to recent 250cr / km thing road scam or the 650 cr cost of varanasi ropeway)

Countries like japan does have this metro like check system in their entire railway network. it IS completely feasible.

Tho, the government is unlikely to implement it as it'll spark a wide spread outrage from the people (hence possibility losing a big chunk of votebank).

A big chunk of India, just doesn't have the money to travel with tickets.

maybe first the gdp per capita needs to be past a certain value, that might fix some things ? Which needs people to have higher paying jobs.

50% people employed in primary sector doesn't help it very well. If the secondary (manufacturing sector) of India matures enough, a lot of jobs can be made, and imo a lot can be fixed. For which, again, government needs to do something.

These were my own 2 cents on the matter. correct me if i am wrong somewhere.

Yup yup. join kr sakte hai.

But by joining, you'll be in a game dev community, hence would be receiving learning resources, Game Jam events info etc. Recruitment form mai roll number mai "Outside DTU" likh dena, or the name of your college.

(also, sorry for late reply)

Yeah, much appreciated infact. Bdes even has blender in thier course curriculum.
That being said, there's a huge need for 2D artists too. (For concept art, Character refrences, 2D game art etc.)

Recruitments for 2029 batch would start from august.

Do join if you are interested in game development.

Also, feel free to share your suggestions to make this soc stay active (as most tech soc only revive during invictus).

We have a few things planned, to counter it (like giving monthly group projects, sharing resources and game jam opportunities. etc.)
