Need some advice
| I just did this in a job point of view as in i wouldn't mind doing this as a job but don't have that much interest in it to diligently soak in hours. I feel like i am disappointing my parents because they keep bringing up how much they have to pay for this course when i am really just doing it for a job.
| Need advice on what to do in a situation like this because i really can't bring myself to live up to the expectations put on me.
| You gotta find your passion. Your interest in programming might be somewhat like my interest in physical science, which I studied in two years in college before discovering that I hated it and the pressure made me suicidal.
So yeah, if you're
| not into it, don't lie to yourself.
Find what's really making you click. What have you done that made you excited?
| (resending this cus my Internet is glitching out and it isn't showing that i sent it) how do you find a career you are interested in? Any tips?
| Well, as I asked, what made you excited? You mentioned games, so like, which part of which games do you like? The logical thinking in tactical games? Or the visual? The stories/story-crafting?
And try out new things. Read a lot. Make things. See what sort of things interest you the most.
| You could become a games journalist, work as a programmer on games, could design for games or gaming related firms, could start streaming/lets play channel which you could then show in you application in a gaming related field.
You can work for free in many gaming related fields for some time and then they will maybe hire you.
You can build your own news platform about gaming.
etc.
| >>177734 i guess the logical thinking in fps games. (on side note thnx a lot for the replies they are actually really helping a lot and giving a better idea on how i should look at things.)

| I hit that point where i need to choose what i wanna do for the rest of my life and chose programming cus i had tried it once and didn't have interest in anything else besides gaming which is not a career i can logically pursue. I got admission for a course in programming and my dad thinks that i am very interested in it and repeatedly asks me to learn coding languages and things way before the course has even started and show interest in it and start projects on my own and things
