Haha sorry to hear that. What had always stopped me was making terrains... I enjoyed composing dialogues and designing monsters (especially bosses) a lot; the pattern of behaviour, the skills, etc. But terrains, especially buildings, meh, I had always sucked. :p Nice, so you're learning Ruby I assume? I had always left the scripting part to pre-made customised scripts, lol. Hmm, how long, I wonder? I guess I just absorb and learn what I can as I go. I only started using Photoshop around two years ago; started knowing about web administration and management stuff in early 2010; and have just finished my second year of learning Japanese formally. So yeah, not really experienced :p
Haha, I was making a game with RPG Maker...Idk what stopped me though...Oh yeah, it was my comp dieing on me x.x I have a new laptop, so I had to re-download it and such lol. I totally suck at scripting too, but I'm learning about that too! Self learning huh? Thats awesome! How long did it take you to learn all of your skills?
Hmm, mostly by self-learning and trying out stuff on my own accord. I never had any proper education or training for those (maybe except Japanese since technically I'm majoring it) nor do I have rl friends I can learn those things from, so the Internet and my online acquaintances are my source. Game designing is interesting, but I figured it'd be too much work for me :p The only thing I know in regards to making games is using RPG Makers I guess lol. Though I suck at scripting so I can't make major customisations on my own either.
I see! How did you figure out how to do those things anyway? I'm curious. I want to figure out how to do everything a computer can do, I also want to design games and such~
Thanks :3 Hmm I'm a freelance editor/translator mostly, though currently not having any work (except administration stuff) during school holidays :p Don't work much since uni's kinda tedious here lol.
Haha nice! I bet you could become one of the best, if you really tried to. Hmm, I see. I'm interested in what you do now :0
Hmm not exactly I guess; I do have some (amateur) experience in regards to stuff I do but not that much. Most of it is obtained through self-study and research in the form of trials and errors too; it's not like I ever underwent any special training or education for them. Maybe with the exception of Japanese since I'm formally studying it. And actually I'm the youngest and possibly also the least experienced admin here :p
Lol I see I see. At least you never run out of stuff to do! Are you experienced at those kinds of things?
Ehehe, yeah, totally like that. Hmm I guess? Aside of my rl stuff, managing sites and their infrastructure with related groups (ASL, ASS) does take up some time~
Yep! I totally agree. Some things just aren't fun without friends. I'd probably do the same thing in your shoes lol. You seem to be quite busy :0
