so i was playing dark souls finally and it's ok there's a lot of rolling involved.
i asked Stuart about dark souls, and he did not like the rolling part.
i said i remember Ocarina of Time, and I was all about the rolling! You went went faster when you rolled!!! I mean I also ran and rode horses but rolling was fun!
i then went home and managed to kill the first 4 skeletons!!!

Thinking about high poly sculpting in ZBrush for class.
Seriously, don't even know why I fucking bother trying to do anything in this fucking class, with this god forsaken time vampire project in an eldritch abomination of a program. Week after week, it's nothing but a fucking waste of time dicking aroundon making some stupidly high detail (or at least, it would be if I could figure out how anything in ZBrush fucking worked) character while I could be working on something that's actually useful or fulfilling to me.
Instead I had to play fetch with fucking garbage **Industry Standards** for graphics, whatever good they ever fucking did anything, I don't know.
I have about two weeks left, I'm nowhere near being done, so I'm probably gonna fail this class. Again. Good thing my apartment lease is till October, cause I'll probably be stuck in this shithole of a city attending this trashheap of a school till then, sucking all my parent's money out of the bank so I can wave around some shitty diploma later on.
And honestly, it wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the fact that every other pig in my class really excels at this thing. I guess that means I'm some kind of mouthbreathing moron, either that or I don't have Naughty Dog's "excellence" welded to my fucking brainstem hard enough like everyone else.
I shouldn't realistically get so mad about it, but it's hard to be cool about shit when you already have anger issues, and then you spend months on end being subjected to nothing but misery, disappointment and frustration.
I feel like I could throw up, or that I could cry, but I've become so numb to everything that those things don't even occur to me anymore. If I could feel anything then maybe it would be scary too, I don't know. Just been nothing but piss offs ever since I woke up this morning.

I want to learn low poly 3d. My long term objective is use something like unity to make a ps1/n64-era game.
i wish we had more games that looked like the ps1 FFs......... i love how ff7 looks, and would totally play a game like that, especially if it knocked down the asking price.
pizza, hang in there! have you tried http://www.lynda.com/ZBrush-training-tutorials/336-0.html Lynda? there are usually free trials hanging around the web, I can try to find one of the ones i've seen if you want to get some of their tutorials.

Same here. I want to do an RPG with PS1 era prr-rendering and such.
Modern games can't even touch them in terms of beauty.

Yo, where'd Lunar Quest go? Did this scare it off?

I'm thinking about changing careers or at least trying something different for a while. Just because I have a degree in a specific field doesn't mean I can't do other things, especially when there are no librarian jobs out there and I'm losing my passion for it.
Pizza: Zbrush is extremely difficult and unintuitive to learn. It's definitely not just you. I've been using it for years and I still sometimes struggle with basic things because its interface is so poorly-designed.

"Only two more days of Ryan? Good, I hate that guy."
You had one job, WFAA. The guy on the right is very clearly smiling through his teeth like "these are the idiots I work for".
How do you misspell a common four letter word anyway?
I like how 99% of all 3D modeling software & engine software has this pretty intuitive set of controls that, like, mostly flows pretty well. Right-click + hold does this, left-click and drag does this, okay. There are a few minor exceptions here and there, no biggie.
Then ZBrush comes in and overhauls all of it senselessly with seemingly no rhyme or reason, the keys all over there, there's seven different drag modes, nothin' makes any fuckin' sense.
It's been like 4 years since I used ZBrush but I distinctly remember my experience being something along the lines of throwing the keyboard around the room and hoping I selected the correct texture option.

It's easy to accidentally misspell a common four-letter word. It's not catching it after you read it once that's worrying. Unless they don't proofread. Which would be dumb.
Its like sculpting but it's simulated!
Must know anatomy very well of animals and humans. Also that hard surface anatomy!

Not experienced with Zbrush but that's kind of how I feel with Maya at least. I think the reason I'm often so reluctant to get into 3D animation and modelling is due to how utterly painful it is to use these programs.
Maya and 3DS Max are a dream in comparison to ZBrush. Never learned how to model in Maya though, only how to animate.
Animation and rigging are actually pretty decently engaging IMO, as well as low poly modelling. I just can't stand high poly sculpting.
EDIT:
One Piece spoilers:

Just threatening to kill an island. No big in the OP world.
I hope this dude gets what he deserves and more, before he does any more permanent damage to the Minks or Zou itself. It's been quite a while since a villain in OP has gotten under my skin so badly- although it's no surprise why this time.
Hopefully Oda hasn't decided to be a heartbreaker about this.

Well, I did have a rather upsetting dream a few nights ago. You know how I'm trying to write a song to thank Libby for getting the Valentine's game out? Well, I dreamed that I had completed this beautiful piece of music and I was just about to present it to the forum, then when I played it back, it was "What A Feeling" from Flashdance. I'm like, "What the fuck, I didn't do this. I can't give the banana princess a rip off." So, I check, and sure enough, I had ripped off "What A Feeling". I went through my files and it turns out every song I wrote was a rip off of a famous, easily recognizable piece.
Suffice it to say, I woke up in a rather rotten mood.
EDIT: Of course, I felt better when I checked and discovered that none of my work were rip offs, and the song I'm working on for Libby most definitely doesn't sound like "What A Feeling".

A few of the songs i've made have been unconscious rip-offs. Like, not entire rip-offs from start to finish, but i've certainly included elements from some songs into another song. It happens.
Always nice to get together with my small immediate family and go on a small road trip.
We were planning on taking a cave tour but we missed its early closure because of the rain around here. Still a very fun day and I needed it :)
