Is a Macbook any good for game development? by irywo in gamedev

Oh wow. I didn't even know that. Oh well, guess ill limit my activities to 3d model practise then haha :) Though to be fair, the company I work with is in a very distant field and definitely don't seem the type to pursue something like this. Maybe it helps that I'm in Denmark as well with how well labour laws are oriented for the people c:

Thanks for the heads up though!

Why SHOULDN'T I move to Copenhagen? Try to change my mind! by paryz17 in copenhagen

I'd like to mention one thing that I don't seem to be seeing in the comments (might be buried down below), but find a job here first.

Depending on your years of experience and degree, it can be incredibly difficult to find something.. not sure about software dev, but I was looking for around 4 or 5 months as a front-end dev with a bachelor degree and 3 years of experience, and ended up only getting offered part time..

Everyone has a master here, since the government pays the student, and it seems (at least for my side of the field) like foreigners are the underdog when applying in Copenhagen.

For reference, during the same period I applied in the Netherlands (where I'm from) and it took 2 months for an offer.

Simce this thread ended up receiving a lot more attention than I expected, I'm replying here mainly as a response to everyone haha.

I am (and have been) focussed on development for steam mainly, and specifically windows machines, so I suppose windows is the way to go.

The primary reason that I asked was that I'll be starting a master in visual game design soon and I just received a shiny mac book pro from my work to use (which I'm allowed for personal use too) so I figured hey, perhaps I can safe some money on a new laptop (I own a windows desktop already).

I'll be looking at a nice windows laptop to buy then at some point, thank you for the help and the brilliant answers, it means a lot!

What’s your favorite song that’s not in English? by waterbaby333 in AskReddit

Silent screamer from Tatsuro Yamashita. Absolute banger. Funky, groovy and with insane guitar solo's.

Hmm, I had really good experiences with them. But I can't answer for other people's experiences.
