I have several questions about gamedev industry. I know that there are special websites about it but I want to collect more data and I know that many people on this forum work in this industry.
I'm going to get my B.Eng. in Engineering Physics very soon and after that I want to start Master's degree and double major in graphic design and management. Then I want to work in game industry as a game designer or a concept artist or (which is my biggest dream) start my own, small indie studio.
In order to boost my portfolio I'm working on a big indie project with my classmates as a lead designer. I think that intership in gamedev company (level design position) would be a good idea too. My speciality is creativity and when it comes to practical skills I'm good at writing and drawing. I'm weak in level design and understanding programmers but I'm working on it.
Here are my questions:
1. Is game industry hard to get into?
2. Is it hard for small indie studios?
3. If I'm not a native speaker can I become game designer?
4. What about payment? Is it decent?
5. What about working environment?
6. What can I do in order to get into it?
Those are quite popular questions but I hope for credible answers.
