Correct me if I am wrong, but this doesn't seem to work for devkits? Like if I want to run something on a PS4 devkit, I can't use parsec for that, can I?
KRAW
Maybe the tools have changed since last I worked in the industry (or maybe we weren't good at using all the features), but I never saw that anyone had remote access to the devkits. I could remote into my workstation, but it surely was not the best way to work.
Not every dev is compiling code to run on a devkit
Depends on the studio. There will be a lead platform, and if that platform is a console, then a majority will run on a devkit.
surely they are not running a new build every day.
In the studio I worked in, we ran new builds almost twice a day. That doesn't include the iterative changes you make if you are a programmer. If you don't run new builds contantly, that means you aren't doing any actual work if you are on the engineering side. If you are in art you might not really screw around with too many builds. If you are a director or producer, you might not either if you're bad at your job.
I actually don't like their games. I am speaking as someone who used to work for a AAA, both before and during COVID shelter in place
Honestly don't understand this take. I am the "straight-edge" friend in my group, and I've always tagged-along regardless of whether they were smoking weed or drinking. You can always order a soda or a snack.
Cool, so you've outed yourself as someone not 100% against racial slurs. If Nintendo was a black-owned company, would you have done the same?
FYI, leetcode is not a "learn to code" website it is a "practice problems that will be asked at tech interviews" site. A lot of these problems are inspired by (or maybe are even literally from) interviews at "top companies" like Google, Facebook, etc. They are almost completely algorithmic or data structure problems, i.e. "unrelated to your actual work" (well, most of your actual work for most people).
My single ultrawide setup has treated me much better than the 2-3 monitor setup I used to have.
Awesome, so Japanese settings will soon be oversaturated in games. We already got Sekiro, Ghost of Tsushima (and will presumably get a sequel), and whatever that other Monster Hunter style game was. We will also be getting an Assassin's Creed in Japan. Sounds like Santa Monica doesn't know what to do so they are following trends. Really don't think Kratos belongs in Japan.
I'll definitely keep this in mind if I end up going back to the industry. Thanks!
