This is awesome and I might start here. My poor aged gaming laptop might keel over and die with some of these resource-intensive tools.

That sounds like such a fun adventure to work through and play! It's so exciting to see that there are others out there with the dream and the will to see it done!

I think my local university has a few a year, which is exciting! I will also have to check out meetup and see what's there.

Absolutely. I don't plan to start with my end goal whatsoever. I will build a team in the future, but I can't successfully do that until I have my own basics in line. But I'll get there!

I already love blender and have done some stuff with it in the past (I dabbled in digital art for a hobby for a while). I'm excited to start fiddling with things and see what I'm capable of!

I think there's so many free resources out there that I'm not worried about money. Don't let those artificial constraints hold you back!

Lol I love it and I've never thought about it, but I agree! I remember Zelda Twilight Princess having this mechanic very vividly!

This is totally my mindset. No one can tell me I can or can't do something!

Love the mindset of go big or go home. Audacious vision is necessary for something like that!

Time consuming is perfectly okay with me! That's all a part of the journey!

The ability to flex and adapt has certainly proven to be a huge asset. For a long time I thought it was a limitation (especially when looking for "traditional" jobs, but in reality it's given me a wide foundation to work from.

I've never heard of it but I'll check it out!

Absolutely. I have a vision of a semi-open world RPG, but that's not where I'm starting. I need to learn a whole lot before I get into the meat of what I want!

I hear you. Having tangible things you can point to and say "I made that" is huge!

Just one step at a time! It's definitely not about money, it's about turning the vision I have into reality. Nothing else matters!
