This is a reupload! I needed to make a couple of changes to make sure I wasn’t accidentally sharing too much of stuff that can’t be shared yet hehe
Hi! Thought it would be fun to share what a day could look like in my life as a game dev (remote in LA). Does any of your work day ever look like mine?

Scheduling all your meetings on one day is definitely a pro gamer move 🤯 Also so jealous of all the cool stuff Amazon sent you! Really cool video 😊

What are some of the top inspirations or gold-standard right now for monetization? certain AAA games? esports, mobile? or maybe something outside of games.

As youre responsible for the monetization draft of a currently developed game, will you be able to share what game it was, once its out? I'm was just thinking about leagues currency and skin shard system and how well its balanced so its at the same time both a good progression system and a feature to finance their work. (And its very interesting to see how they will adapt to their playerbase getting a generation change/eventually decrease and how they will handle that looking at that monetization system, what do you think?) Also a bit off topic: how much time are you spending outside with that husky? I have no clue about that race but always got scared by people telling me its a time consuming breed in that manner
@morganling
@morganling Год назад
Yes! I'll share the game once it's officially announced! Good monetization systems should never detract from core gameplay and should definitely evolve with the lifecycle of the players. Well designed ones also tie in nicely with a game's retention loop so a simple example of that could be in-game events that encourage players to login daily during a specific time period. Similar to ur example season or battle passes are also systems that tie in a progression element to it. When it comes to the lifecycle of your players you'll def want to adjust monetization with them! Content offerings to someone who's played 10 hrs should look different to someone who's played 100 hrs, but it also largely depended on the type and genre of the game itself as well. My Husky's name is Andrew! He was about 3 yrs old when I adopted him a couple years ago. Normally I wouldn't want to have a winter dog in LA but he was already at the shelter and I think he was in LA most of his life already. I would say generally huskies are known to be a lot of work, as a breed they tend to need more exercise and are known for being super chatty and sassy. I think I got super lucky bc my husky is super lazy and not chatty (he's a little sassy tho!). I'll take him for long walks when the sun isn't fully up yet and on avg he gets about 4mi of walking a day. It seems to be fine for him bc he just lounges and naps all day when we're inside haha.

Hi. My student Dionie is doing a project on the History of Video Games and would like to interview you, if possible, about your journey into video game development and any tips you may have for someone who wants to be a developer. Would you be interested in doing a quick virtual interview with my student? He's a senior who is interested in potentially pursuing a career in this field. We would greatly appreciate it.
