nooooo i do not
For me, it was playing a really cool guitar solo at a school concert
I'm 30 now and all I seem to dream about these days is being like Vash the Stampede/Dante from DMC/Gene from Godhand
So your dreams are featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series?
my dreams are 20lbs of pussy and ass, most of the time
You and I are kin. Watch Archer, there's a treasure trove of that kinda character in the titular character. Also City Hunter but that might not have aged well for newcomers.
holy shit...
>be me
>play guitar
>talent show coming up
>classmate has band
>their guitarist hurts their hand
>invites me
>"we're covering blah blah blah so learn it"
>during school hours so everyone is there
>doing well during song
>solo is coming up
>freeze
>stop playing
>put guitar down
>walk off stage
>forever known as "that guy"
For me it was living and traveling to cool places in the world and banging foreign chicks. Especially Japan.
Somehow ended up in Thailand instead, but that turned out to be even more awesome than Japan could ever be. For obvious reasons.
You do know you can still play guitar right? Literally pick one up and do some scales right now.
>wanting to be famous
No thanks
>he doesn't WANNNA BEE WANNA BEEEE FAMOUSS
ngmi
This. Imagine being under the watch of MSM, game journalists and Reddit communities 24/7
I wanna be succesful enough to be able to fund my own little game studio and create whatever I want but not famous enough to have to normify my games
Just do something like Black Souls.
>normify my games
This isn't a relevant thing; every game can be made for everybody; every gameplay implementation either detracts or adds to quality.
>being famous in this day and age
>forced to comply with the now sociopolitically mangled masses
Ironically a bit grateful for it. I'm just going to try and move up at work to make a livable wage like a normal ass human being and make games as a hobby instead of attempting some Undertale shit that would never work out anyway. If I get famous anyway so be it, but I'm not about to willingly put myself in Twitter's crosshairs. I wasn't necessarily one of Toby's close friends but after UT it was obvious the dude eventually closed himself off, probably busy but could also be scared to interact with a lot of people. I'd hate to feel like I'd have to do the same thing if I ever found similar success. Even millions are worthless if it means having a cult sprout around me and spending the rest of my life always mildly worried about obsessed freaks finding out where I live.
that makes sense. I've always said that I want to be rich, but I don't give a frick about being famous. You can keep that shit.
reminds me of how one of the factorio devs told people to frick off after they were trying to virtual signal on him
You do realize how much your post sounds like projection, right?
what also shows projection is you getting pissed, cause OP didn't say "hey anon, this applies to you:"
No not really. But you were obviously projecting tho
No, I daydream about being a mass killer in Minecraft but unfortunately they took out the death penalty mechanic in an update.
How did you know? Get out of my head.
Do i need to go to a therapist if i start getting lost in said day dreams, to the point where I act them out ?
No. Why would you even think that?
You should only be worried when you start thinking they are real as it's a possible early sign of dementia
no you should probably just get a job. therapy is for pussies
SHUT UP
I day dream about being homeless and just traveling the country. I hate my life, hate my job, hate how lazy I am and useless I am, etc.
This is called jouska and most people do this. People frequently play out conversations and arguments in their head and fantasize about being correct or looking impressive. I did it all the time leading up to my first novel but I always imagined it being more grand than getting interviewed by some shitty booktube channel for like 10k views
Bro don't do this to me, I dream about writing a novel and getting famous from it all the time.
Its worse if you went from this down to dreaming you had enough money to, like, just own your own dishwashing machine
I did this as well. I wrote a novel but the pressure of making it perfect as possible and the fear of being humiliated by putting myself out there made me give up on it. My dream was to have a small but devoted reader base that truly loved my stuff.
I dream about conversations with people with different ideologies to me, to try and test my beliefs against opposing viewpoints
To assist with this, I read a lot of philosophy books that I disagree with to gain a better understanding of those ideologies
>I do it surely most people do this too
no schizo.
If you don't do this you're a fricking NPC unironically.
>he's never had a one to one conversation with hitler about how to win the war and what would happen if he didn't
If yu don't have a constant inner monologue including simulations of talking to other people, you are not a real person.
actually, it's the other way around. If you need to constantly consult your inner programming to model potential and even unlikely future interactions, you are an NPC.
Normal people have no need for this, talking to people, planning, and having conversations comes and flows so naturally that the idea of playing it out in their head would sound like a redundant waste of time only spent by austists with their brains wired differently than a normie.
Go back to sucking off the Bible, the adults are talking
>and most people do this.
Don't look up the amount of people that lack an inner monologue
I do this a lot but when working out my inner dialogue is almost entirely arguments about why I dislike israelites. Why is this?
I've done this for a lot of things I don't think I've ever imagined being a vidya dev though.
I do this. I also imagine e-celebs lavishing my imaginary games with praise. The weirdest instance of this is definitely when I imagine Jon Blow talking about how many interesting ideas are in my game and how well conveyed they are, and how unusual it is that such a feat was accomplished by a porn game of all things. I don't even like Blow.
>he imagines how his game trailers would play out, and the hyped reaction of the masses
>he imagines his favorite twitter artists making porn out of his character
All I wanna do is be rich and live life at my own pace. Maybe travel a little bit but mainly for the wildlife and countryside. I'd probably just stay at home, continuing working out and reading manga/playing video games--maybe even stream a little just so people can watch me play games (no face cam). That's my common daydream.
And it's not like I think I am a loser or anything like that, but I do believe I don't offer anything to a woman other than my dick and high sex drive, so I don't think I will ever meet a girl who would be romantically involved with me.
at this point, i don't even see rich as much of an option; well off enough to not have to worry about bills and stuff with some money left over for a small garden, charity and whenever i want an Arizona. I don't go outside much, barring work, and don't really buy much of anything; most of what I play are old games on Fightcade.
Source on the pic?
Some gay furry comic where a dogboy cross dresses and gets fricked by a buffalo or something. It's really gay and does the typical "draw a girl but then add a dick and call it a boy" but this time it's furry flavour. Don't remember what it's called.
Thought it was Anya

~63 pages of full non-flat color pages devoted to niche porno
i guess you get paid a damn lot for the effort
frick you OP my TTGL game announcement at E3 is gonna be sick as hell
Wrong. I daydream of being isekai'd as a new character in my favorite video games.
are you me?!
I daydream about cute girls like in OP's pic
>girl
see
who are you quoting
Me
Black folk
Actually I daydream about completing my niche weight gain fetish rpgmaker game.
as a gamedev i fantasize about having a general on /vg/ where people post their toons of my characters and discuss my game's lore in obsessive depth.
i have no interest in being some witty famous talkshow douchebag. my only fantasy is that people would fall in love with my game and play it for years to come based on its own inherent merits
I want my game to have contrarian shitposters try to ruin threads on my game, and my chad game enjoying bros will tell them to kill themselves
Actually I daydream about being a girl teasing anons until they can't take it and "rape" me. It wouldn't be a rape because that's what I want but anons wouldn't know better as I would pretend cry and ask for help.
What happened to Powfooo? They disappeared from the internet?
He 41%'ed
I daydream about making sequels to my favorite franchises, and/or having them crossover for no particular reason.
>Max and monica from Dark Cloud are finally perfecting flying technology, but the world undergoes a cataclysm, so they help make airships for the future
>they have a kid who grows up to be an ancestor of Vyse from skies of arcadia
>he conquers the world as a pirate king, and establishes space travel, which lets the humans join the federation from Metroid
That sounds fricking dope.
For me, it's:
>the federation from Metroid is the same federation from FTL
>after being tired of space pirates constantly trying to kill everyone, a branch of humans rally under the rebels to kill off every accursed xeno in the galaxy
>Ha ha, thanks for having me on Geoff. You know it's a real honor to be up here and to have my name be held in the same esteem as legends like Hideo Kojima, though I suppose I'm going to have to knock out Sleepy Joe if I really want to live up to Kojima's standards am I right? Hahaha, just joking folks, just joking. No, but in all seriousness, I want to thank all of you for playing my game, I couldn't have done this without you. And there's one group of people in particular I'd like to give a shoutout too, though I'm not sure just how I should refer to them in a way they'd appreciate... these are people that helped form my taste in videogames, and helped me to understand and articulate the nuances of game design in my many discussions with them about different games. And they're a rowdy bunch too, let me tell you! Let's just say this, for those folks who like to LOL... for those folks who HATE soi milk... and for those folks who could argue about videogames until they're blue in the face... you know who you are, and fellas, I think you're pretty based. Enjoy the rest of The Game Awards everybody. *blows kisses*
I've never wanted to be anything
Yes, and? I also daydream about me being the dev of games I like. What are you going to do about it, b***h?
Ya got me.
Make another yiff review butthole
I do this but I pretend to be a movie director and imagine all the films I would make. It passes the time while walking the dog. My latest project is trying to adapt the original Dragonball series into a trilogy.
I'm a drunk the only thing I think about is when I can get my next drink.
I'm an ideas guy. One day people will make games from it.
>fantasizing passively about muh dreams but not actively taking on the difficult challenges to make them come true in real life
are there any genuine strugglers here at all?
I keep trying and keep failing for nearly a decade now. Time is running out and I'm still too moronic to sort it out.
I'm allergic to effort.
I've come to accept that I'm not a person who does things or makes things happen.
Wrong I dream of having a e-girl sitting on my lap. I slowly start kissing her neck all the way to her lips
I just dream of being famous just to shitpost on a bigger scale.
I tell myself the world isn't ready... but perhaps it is I who is not ready.
>he daydreams about Ganker's reaction and discussions about his game
OP's picture is from a comic where the twink homosexual is taken by his former boss to a shack where he rapes him
Homosexuality needs to be outlawed again
Illegal in my country
kys
powfooo died from vax btw
>changed from showing dollars made per month to only how many patrons he has
>indian shill likes gay furry porn
wtf?? cringe???
I like to play out imaginary games design and style in my head
Then write down the one i like
Needs rape correction
Yep, that's literally me.
I also daydream about having my own game studio managing multiple teams working on my super ebin game ideas then using my infinite success money to help people in poor countries feed themselves and hiring assassins to kill globalists.
How do I stop dreaming and start doing? I dropped all of my projects so far. The clock is ticking. The regrets are mounting. I am afraid
Force yourself. It takes only a few days of misery to finally get the ball rolling. The only barrier is psychological.
Of course I do. I've already thought out the game's trailer that's gonna play on E3 and so on, it's gonna be great.
Realize that failing is a part of the learning process and feeling suicidal because you're trash is normal for every artist. In other words mindfrick yourself into seeing everything as an opportunity to learn. If you need help imagine yourself as a chad to justify your mistakes as experiments being done on purpose.
Work at a really shitty minimum wage job for at least a year then realize that if you don’t sit down and get shit done you’ll be stuck doing that for the rest of your years.
Be honest. You work on projects in the hope that you can escape minimum wage hell but in reality you never will and creative outlets are merely a way to prevent brainrot.
Sure but at least I’ll die knowing that I tried
That's the right attitude! Good luck out there.
Your existence is what you make of it. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take
But of course! Don't take that to mean "never try because your life will still suck" but rather "accept that life sucks and always will but don't let that stop you"
Life doesn’t have to suck. Life is good bro.
:')
Life only sucks if you hyperfocus on the bad parts
there's no good parts
you say that because you only focus on those
You woke up alive, with food and shelter, and the ability to browse at your leisure something with enough information as to put the Library of Alexandria to shame.
its the little things that make life worth living
joy and happiness loses its flavour in the absence of suffering
1. Start small, start realistic. It's easy to daydream about being some legendary game dev, but you'll never get there if the only thing you're thinking about is some mega-dream project that you could never complete all by yourself as a beginner (for ideas on what kinds of projects ARE achievable look into other indie games, especially solo projects, this will help set your expectations for your new goal instead of having your head in the clouds with an impossible idea you could never achieve)
2. Accept that proper game dev WILL require some level of collaboration (yes, even a solo project). Analyze the parts of the project you are good at/want to do/have to do, then separate out the parts you can contract out to other people down the line (like asset creation if you're no good at art, artists work on commission and most will willingly hand the completed asset over to you for a one time contract fee, so don't worry about paying royalties as long as you make that clear in writing from the start so they don't get salty about it later).
3. Find out what skills you need to learn (programing, etc) to actually make your game.
4. Start working on the game, don't wait, don't say "I'll start tomorrow" or "I'll start when I'm ready" start as soon as you've got a realistic vision and a grasp on what you can and can't do.
The interviews in my head are usually before the release of my first high-profile project and I try to be very transparent while explaining my design choices. I don't know if that's more humble or more pathetic.
Frick, same. It's probably because we are so tired of devs lying all the time during marketing
I just want to make a fighting game and have a 10 minute video for every character where I explain their gameplan and how each move plays into it while linking to a full chart of frame data in the description that gets updated every patch.
>OP is a homosexual with no joy in his heart and no imagination in his head.
As per usual.
It's called preparation
I just want to make a game people enjoy I don't want to be a famous dev
>he doesn't have an immense fantasy universe which he develops and creates a story for in his head every night before bed
Seth fricking killed General Liberius after a really though fight, he lost his arm but managed to trick him and landed a blow that he had set up before the fight had even begun.
It was the most kino shit I've ever seen.
>General Liberius
>fricking SETH
I know names are hard but jesus christ anon
Bet you're gonna be real mad when I tell you there's a redhead name Ruby too.
I do have a big epic fantasy story idea in my head that I'd like to turn into a web comic... I never will, of course. Even if I were to chase my dreams, I have like eight other dreams ahead of it in queue. Can't get around to all of them.
I've been reading another webcomic (KillSixBillionDemons) lately and it annoys me how similar a lot of my ideas are to it. Breddy gud comic, though.
KSBD is fricking cool anon, if your ideas are similar I'm sure you had thought about something amazing too. I like to think that even if your ideas are similar to something else you can put your own spin on it to make it a different story.
t. has once written fricking Isekai but deleted all of it
I too do this, however...
>these names
We not the same
Literally me, except I'm 35 and I've achieved nothing
>ITT: all the nodev "dreamers" who frequently come into the dev threads to shit on anons who have actually taken the time and effort to try to make their own games rather than just sitting around playing other people's games like the lazy parasites they are
Is it so wrong to dream?
no i mostly mow my lawn and raise my kids while working from home for about $135k not including bonuses.
You just described me...
I know I haven't worked on my game in months...
Stop laughing at me, I can still become popular...
What's your game anon?
>not actually a girl
I'm so fricking mad right now
god damnit
I day dream about having a wife
Is something going on? There's a lot of weird threads with OP images like this
motherfricker it just means is the same user making a bunch of different threads because he is fricking bored
thats not what it means at all newfriend
do you honestly believe someone will raid when the board is this slow?
>Implying
That's rookie daydreaming shit anon.
My fantasies are considerably more detached from reality.
I'm here playing out my conquest of the entire world or inventing something that changes the very nature of what it means to be human in my head.
Get on my level.
Reality only hinders us. Embrace delusion.
Muh delusion
have a nice day moron, I am literally going to conquer the entire world and make everyone into psychic gods
Reality is more than what you see with your physical eyes
No, I do however daydream about hypothetical dream games that I'd want to play.
When I play games I sometimes pretend I'm giving an E3 demo and I'll do the slow pans and walking that they do while I narrate it.
I daydream about me being a very famous indie dev, who shits on trannies and every big company by allowing racist and homphobic mods in my game, also no gay characters in my game and I would laugh at any person asking why my game has no blacks.
I don't, where'd you get that idea, you schizo
I daydream about the mechanics of the game I want to make; what sort of content it would have, what the controls would be, and what the plot and missions would be like
I only daydream about being rich and having an entire squad of sexy maids to clean my mansion (and my wiener)
I dream about being rich, buying this shithole, and closing it down.
I don't give a frick about having a girlfriend (waste of time) or being rich (too much stress)
I just want a stable fricking job, man...
It looks like she just farted and is enjoying the other people in the room just realizing and looking like they're going to hurl.
>she
I daydream about life being better in ten years and me still having a kinda normal life but the way its going it will probably be living hell. No idea if there actually will be a need for game devs or video games in general at that point in time.
If it reassures you know that Yuval Noah Harari (Klaus Schwab's main advisor) said multiples times that drugs and mainly video games were a good solution to keep people entertained and docile once they've all been rendered useless by complete automation so I don't think game devs will disappear (unless they get remplaced by soulless AIs too)
You got that half right. I dream about being enough of a big shot to be able to publicly mock and laugh at every game journalist trying to get a hold of me while my followers call me based on >twitter
Never trust twitter for anything. It's only positive thoughts allowed until somebody flips a switch and suddenly no one is allowed to like you, even your most devout followers will hesitate to defend you publically.
At least I am not the only one that does that haha...
No, I just daydream about actually good games I'd like to see.
>daydream about getting interviewed
>interviewer always get confrontational and it ends in violent arguments
alright i'm gonna do it
what segment of badly drawn anime porn is underserved
Human futa on female feral.
I thought I was alone with this. Every now and then I imagine seeing my imaginary game on storefronts and sometimes while browsing Ganker I imagine anons talking about my game, fighting over my game's waifus. I even fricking thought about a goddamn fricking video essay about my game because I am mentally ill
I imagine all the horrible things someone could say in a thread here, things that really dig deep at my insecurities about my game (and myself).
Yes, but I wear a mask like yoko taro. Speak in strange riddles. answer questions with questions.
Get a unique gimmick, that one's taken.
Replace answering questions about game design philosophy with questions of why I'm not inclusive toward non-lesbian gays and transexuals, and you have me.
Can you put your pronouns in your profile please?
It normalizes trans people, and reduces violence against us in the real world.
When I was in high school I wanted to be an anime voice actor so badly, wanted to work at Funimation and work with ANIME. I realize now that it's a horrible industry to work in, and I don't think anyone is happy working in it.
Voice acting is also insanely competitive you have to compete to get lead roles against other actors
Nice projection, you fricking troony loser.
I only have a daydream in which I'm asked if I would include more lgbtqiddqd+ / ethnic groups / women etc. in my game just for the sake of it and I say no.
Absolutely, this is how it would play out
>"Show" up to interview 20 minutes late, answer questions
>The "me" who showed up is actually not me but a body double, I show up 50 minutes late in full cosplay of one of my game's characters, including a mask of their bust, thus obscuring my face.
>I explain the trick and the interviewer is puzzled, but amused, interview begins for real now
>So, did you think [Game] would ever have the success it did? A lot of the elements in it are very experimental, but somehow they resonated with the mainstream. Was that something you planned, or did it just sort of happen?
>Put on fake foreign accent and speak in broken english
>Ahm,...ahem...yes...zere are....ze certain elements....of ze...ze genre...in ze ludonarrative disonant....ess...a very....a very bi thing, yes. you know?
>Yeah, absolutely! Now, do you have any sequels planned, or are you going to move onto other things from here?
>Yes yes, well ahm you see, ze sequel is in ze game, it is, how you say, metaphysic? ze secret end of ze game can be called sequel, in ze altered reality, you know?
>Entire audience is now mindfricked, every hack journo goes to rapidly type up articles about the game's sequel within my game
>Well, thank you for your time today, I think we -definitely- learned a lot.
>(switching back to perfect english) No problem, it was my pleasure. Oh and look forward to (Game 2) coming in 2023
>Proceed to delay Game 2 for 11 years
>delay game 2 for 11 years
Yes I do. What do you daydream about?
I also daydream about being the president
>keep creating battle secnario for my non-existent game, up to and including secret bosses
autism is blessing but also a curse
No, I dream about becoming an MD at a major bank rather than being a VP.
yeah you fricking got me, I fantasize about my favorite devs meeting me and telling me that they think my work is cool too. now post more of this bawd
