I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I need to figure out how to get involved with this business, but I live in a town where sadly, my dreams will not come true.

Before I even read, I chose "chase your dreams", because that is always the right choice to make for yourself.

The internet is a vastly huge resource for everything you need to know. Unlike College and University, the Internet will not hand you your studies on a silver platter, but instead you must hunt for it. I think robust self-teaching is always the best course of action. Well, it was (and has been) for me so far. I didn't enjoy College much; it felt too restrictive. I was advancing further ahead because of how frequently I said "okay I get it" a lot of the time.

But, just remember that location means nothing, as long as you have access to the Internets, you're fine.

You don't need to live somewhere TO get hired, you need to live there WHEN you get hired. Never feel limited by your location.

I was a finalist :P

I'm not going to use the word "luck", because it all comes down to effort and perserverance; how far you're willing to go to get to your destination. You want to get there because you did the work to get there, without the aid of luck.

So instead I'll say: Keep at what you want to do, have a passion for it; and you'll make it to any level you desire.

Wise words of wisdom that I may use in the future. Thank you.

Chase your dreams but be able to role with the punches in case anything goes wrong.

Good luck dude.

People trying to say my dream is stupid are the people who will be playing a game I helped make while working at Bungie.

I honestly envy you. It's no easy feat to have your mind made up for a career. Go for it man! My advice is to set your sights somewhere, but realize there are so many other talented studios for you to work at or even start building your own. I wish you the best of luck OP!

As I said, don't be discouraged friend. There will always be a few trolls.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

I'd just give up.

Good luck and build up your resume.

Should keep yourself motivated against uneven odds.

Questions lead to learning, learning leads to kowledge, knowledge leads to understanding, understanding leads to peace.

It's nice to read a thread that isn't annoying or critical of something. As for OP, go for it. Remember, you' never get there if you don't try. Then kick yourself for not realizing that you do or do not, their is no try. :D

I'm planning on trying to work for Bungie in the future as well, of course I still got a long while before then. I'm a freshman in High School...
