And there's no CS in the oral part except for a few very basic algorithms in maths/physics (there's a written exam then if you've done well enough there's an oral one)

Hakase

I just don't know what's going on in computer sciences in proper universities

my uni was a complete joke about those subjects

Hippalectryon

Well I'm kind in a weird education system. Not uncommon in France but I have yet to find an equivalent elsewhere

Classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles

The classes préparatoires aux grandes écoles (CPGE) (English: Higher School Preparatory Classes), commonly called classes prépas or prépas, are part of the French post-secondary education system. They consist of two very intensive years (extendable to three or exceptionally four years) which act as a preparatory course (or cram school) with the main goal of training undergraduate students for enrollment in one of the grandes écoles. The workload is one of the highest in the world (between 35 and 45 contact hours a week, plus usually between 4 and 6 hours of written exams, plus between 2 and 4 hours...

Hakase

idk much about educational institution structures in the world, so that's all new to me

Hippalectryon

This year (unlike last year) I got admitted to all the written parts so I had four weeks straight of oral exams ;_;

Finally over

Hakase

so what are your plans for career n such?

Hippalectryon

5:31 PM

And of course I screwed the orals for the school I wanted :(

@Hakase Research... but I failed the research schools I wanted I think, so engineering otherwise

Hakase

what kind of research and engineering?

Hippalectryon

Physics. Maybe with a bit of maths/programming.

Hakase

specific areas?

Hippalectryon

@Hakase Nah I don't know yet, but mostly theoretical stuff. Quantum physics maybe, who knows ? :D

Hakase

well, what are you interested in most

Hippalectryon

5:32 PM

There are so many interesting parts of theoretical physics though

Hakase

have you considered practical jobs? (idk much about how theoretical sciences work but I assume all of them are in academia which idk anything about)

Hippalectryon

Nope :( I like what I'm currently doing too much :D

Hakase

and what is it?

Hippalectryon

That's the main reason why I wanted to do research, to continue studying many diverse parts of sciences

I'm not really specialized yet

Hippalectryon

Add a feature in the bot to auto translate them ?

the thing is you have to be able to request images by tags

Hippalectryon

you can add that if you have some time :D

we're not in a business of presenting many pictures at once here :p

you're gonna have to go to danbooru or similar

Taisho just posts something to liven up the place

Hippalectryon

O_o this guy rocks I've been searching for it everywhere

Hakase

5:40 PM

so when do you think you'll know what exactly you wanna do?

Hippalectryon

@Hakase In two to three years. I'l planning on studying for 5 more years for now

Hakase

I mean you gotta at least have some shortlist of your favorite topics

Hippalectryon

@Hakase Physics, Programming as a hobby, maths, chem :-)

Hakase

I suppose the matter of your main research subject and final work will arise 2-3 years until your graduation

do you know any people that could help guide you towards your dream job?

Hippalectryon

Not really, but I'm sure I'll fine some in the upcoming years :-)

Hakase

5:43 PM

maybe any companies that do the stuff you're a fan of

Hippalectryon

I can't think of any company like that though :(

Hakase

nah I guess that would be too broad

Hippalectryon

I'm using way too many emotes

Hakase

usually it would be a division in a big corporation

I used to use way too many smileys until the multiple chins grew too many :)))))))))))

Hippalectryon

@Hakase Btw do you work ? (just wondering)

Hakase

5:45 PM

it's just hard for me to imagine what an actual researcher does throughout their day

ye I'm working on my game right now, but as a money thing I do computer repairs

surprisingly I could pull off getting the same amount of money as a full-time job but with irregular calls to random peeps in the neighbourhood

Hippalectryon

@Hakase Oh, the unity game with springs acting weird ? :D

Hakase

idk anything about that, I'm just researching successful games right now and figuring out what my first public version should look like to get the right traction

no unity planned currently, but maybe in the future

just 2d drawing libs

maybe some physics libs, we'll see

Hippalectryon

O_o wait I mixed your game and arda's

yesterday, by arda

Hakase

oh there are multiple people making games here

Tosh is making a boss-killer game with magical girl aesthetic

I'm keeping my eye on some other users in gamedev chat room who are also making their games

it's very useful to understand where different people stand and it helps me see where I (don't) want to be

so that's why I asked if you know any people who are living something like how you want to live in the future

when I started out with my game making endeavours I looked around to see how the game devs do their thing and it was confusing at first because there were so many different types of games and so many jobs in a game company

after several years it's much clearer what's going on and where I see myself in that huge picture

now I'm trying to figure out the best practices of doing what I wanna do by looking at similar works, their creators, what they did, how the people reacted, etc

can't say things are clear as day, but definitely clearer than say 3 years ago when I didn't know almost anything about it

so I guess 2-3 years is about right

Taisho

Hakase

5:55 PM

make sure to read some of the top workplace.se questions to learn something about typical work problems and maybe academia.se if you're gonna be related to that

Hippalectryon

What's your game about ?

Hakase

I think it's mostly about fun ways of combining various mechanics together

I'm still not sure what the main focus should be but I have multiple high priority things on my list

it's gonna take a while for me to decide which aspect is gonna be the core part and on which the rest is gonna base

apparently this is of paramount importance for a high quality game experience

Hippalectryon

Well as long as it doesn't turn out to be like Dwarf Fortress :P

Hakase

ye I still don't know anything about it because it looks unintelligible

those cuts to people everywhere make public reaction look fake

it'd be more likable imo if it was presented in real time

I've been thinking a bit about A&M site design and I think we shouldn't try to simulate a generic manga page, as it would be pretty corny and amateurish

bunching up random characters is also not a good idea

using comic fonts is in the same range of badness

something tells me our best bet is a very clean theme with a hint of Japan in form of suggestive colors and control element ornaments

looking at Japanese.SE now, they don't have much details there and it looks alright

ok I don't know anything about that, disregard :p

Hippalectryon

@Hakase Yeah I'd pick something like that

pick any and see if you can tell them apart

Chinatsu-creepy-chan

not all shoujos

Hakase

well, a whole bunch of em

Chinatsu-creepy-chan

at least in my conception of a shoujo show

is, e.g, Toradora a shoujo?

Hakase

yo wuuuut natsumi yuujinchou is not a shoujo show

Toradora def is tho

I wonder where that style comes from

@Tosh do you happen to know where that style of shoujo originated?

I remember seeing that style in some old european illustrations

it was either tin can design or children's book art

I just googled up whatever I could come up with and couldn't find anything but I'm certain I've seen that style before and it was most probably not anything japanese

@Hippalectryon those lyrics are pretty jarring to my ear

some people sure like that stuff but it's just weaker than the original tunes imo

I feel like the emotion is lost with the voices they have and the mixing they do on those covers

Hippalectryon

I've never listened to the original

Hakase

9:15 PM

you should

Hippalectryon

II just liked the way they had both voices mixed in that cover

(I've never played undertale)

Hakase

and you should play it too

there are no songs though, just music

but it's one of the best soundtracks ever

there are a few core tracks but with variations the album comes to life

toby really knows something about music

it just looks interesting, idk about the implementation

a certain electronic music album unyt.info

> Ultimae used to be a great label, but they haven't released anything great for a few years now, so maybe they've lost their touch. In the past few years they've transitioned towards releasing generic, soft, characterless ambient music. Strangely, this stuff is popular with a lot of people, but I can't see it appealing to the audience that fell in love 10 years ago with Solar Fields, Aes Dana and Carbon Based Lifeforms.

Solar Fields was their brightest star. He produced the most music of the highest quality. Carbon Based Lifeforms produced 3 great albums for Ultimae. Early Aes Dana and As…

I feel the same way

there was nothing great in any of the recent albums

heh

it means it's time to explore other genres and artists

great stuff is there, just in another form

too bullet hellish at the end there

vimeo.com/173004301 looks somewhat interesting but very amateurish still

facial animation with that witch lady could use some work

it's weird when a pretty nice game has jarringly bad facial expressions at key cutscenes

one example I saw today was a screen shot of Brothers Tale of Two Sons scenes with other people, especially one closer to the end which is pretty silly

don't really know how hard it is to make proper facial expressions in the 3d game world but that's on my "don't fuck this up" list
