Video Games or Mastercam?

[byte]

I can't decide which one I want to do for the rest of my life, but I have to choose just one.
Let's vote!

I voted gamer. Way more demand for that than a Mcam guy.

Which one wakes you up in the middle of the Night?

Are you talking Money?

If you pick the Fun One, Will it be Fun when you have to do it?

Which one can you let go?


Why are you forcing yourself to pick one?

How bout you design software with the Skimpily Clad Hawt women Machining a Part.

You would prolly get half if not more of the Guys here happy to Help.

And a Fish.

I thinks so too, it is just so Niche, and a very competitive space!

It's my dream to be a video game developer, I sort of enjoy working on the Mastercam stuff more, making a game is hard!!!!

I suspect there are a whole lot of "game developers" and maybe 10% actually make a living at it
2% make a good living and .01% hit the big time.
 
I'll bet the work environment isn't a whole lot different than driving Mastercam
Lots of pressure to meet schedules and quality goals

Have you thought about post development?
Three of the world's best are in Canada.
In House, Postability, and ICAM
I'm sure a guy with your talents could excel at it

I haven't really thought about it, Making posts isn't really something I have experience with..

I am imagine the skills you aquire programming games would be useful in other fields as well. Don't assume this choice will be locked in for a life time. Nothing says you can't change your mind. Do what you love first and see if you can make a living at it. But always keep your options open.

Robotics programming - would be kindasorta a mix between the two and the opportunities are growing exponentially.
