Why I Chose Game Design

Something I love about game design is the ability to have a well rounded experience of controlling an artificial environment. Being able to model a character and environment and then being able to code them to interact in this intricate space is magic to me. However, I don't want it to be magic. I want to be able to write lines and lines of code, rigging my character with numbers and phrases, choosing every behavior based on a whim. I would love to choose how my character looks, practicing animating mouths and body language for interactions, making sure any gamers playing share that same space. That's also why I love VR. The ability to walk in the character's shoes and look around such a well built setting, complete with music and sounds of every kind. I remember my first time using VR, and it was scary in an exciting way. I was bumping into walls, completely unaware of the outside world with my headphones and goggles on. It was the ultimate immersion one can expect from a virtual presence.

A lot of my influence came from RPGs such as Final Fantasy, the Paper Mario games, and much more. I always loved character interactions, an interesting backstory, and even being able to play as multiple different characters in one game. Minecraft also influenced my interest in 3D modeling, being able to create intricate structures and interact with them without requiring any real skill.
