No, run..not walk..run from the game industry.
You should make $80-90k fresh out of college
Big demand. If you're smart and you know you're smart, demand 120k
After that, be a hero! and not a zero!
- sillysaurus3 12y ago$120k for a college grad?
- mikerichards 12y agoYes, after 6 mos..you demand $120k, if you're good, and you know you are. Demand $120k in St. Louis
- sillysaurus3 12y agoFor a college grad in St Louis? In what context? Webdev, or...?
- mikerichards 12y agoYes, St. Louis, a college grad..if you should demand at least 100k..and more if you're good. You should demand at least 90k in St. Louis right out of college. Demand is outrageous.
- mikerichards 12y agoSenior devs in St. Louis should at least demand $75/hr..which ain't much on the coasts, but very good money here. You get it.
- mytochar 12y agoUnless you want to make games, then it's not such a bad idea. Get a few AAA titles under your belt and go hunt for the company that you want to work for. Money isn't everything, some people just want to work in the gaming industry. (edit: adding more) That said, making any sort of racist joke (presuming it's properly racist) about the person you're ABOUT TO INTERVIEW and during the interview is just plain bad form. It's a good indicator that that company isn't the one you should be interested in anymore. My two cents.
