Alright, it'd fun to complain and get things off your chest, but there's a reason why everyone's still here. Let's hear all the things you love about this school!

The Wi-Fi is downright functional this year.

Also there's this kind of thing.

Having Richard Garfield speak was cool. I also got to volunteer and work at Valve studios for the first Dota 2 International that was aaaaamazing. I worked in IT and it was great!

The Adjunct professors were awesome ESPECIALLY THE HISTORY teacher, DAT ASS!

Personally, I just enjoy being around all you guys. It's nice to be near so many people with common interests, especially when going to clubs

Sure Digipens full of BS but I really do like the work im doing here so I feel it will be worth it in the end

I will never stop working on GAM.

I like getting a lot of streetpasses.

c0c14e No.449

I agree. Street passes. When the freshmen come in you can get 40+ a day. It's why I didn't drop out. Legit.

DigiPen Goggles are a godsend - I can be happy with a 4/10 instead of an 8.

this is our special whining and complaining place, if we wanted to toot digipens horn we would go to the facebook page or the reddit.

Dude, check this out:
If you click the arrow next to the post you can HIDE it!
That means if you don't like a thread you can hide it and won't worry about having to see it! How cool is that!?

if I did that then I couldn't bitch about it

I genuinely see improvement in my work week after week, as fucking miserable as the BFA program is.

7e57aa No.1377

>>1356
Can you attribute that to the school or simply practicing?

763829 No.1382

>>1377
Could be both. The school DOES force you to practice.

a461b3 No.1394

>>1382
Mostly this, when you're forced to draw so much you're bound to improve.
There's a few choice BFA professors who work extremely hard for the students, their critique pushes the improvement. But honestly I could be producing better work than I am now, the time constraints force us all to cut corners and half-ass things.

Every single DigiPen assignment I've ever done.

If I leave now I'll be the only one in my family to drop out of a college.

Oldest of five here, this is now the second time I've dropped out of college (though the first time hardly counted). Two siblings are still in school, about to graduate, and the youngest two are about to graduate high school and go to college. Both parents graduated college, and all four grandparents graduated college too.

I feel your pain.

763829 No.1790

This school pisses me off not because it's so shitty but because it could've been so fucking awesome. Look at it - a place where people passionate about making games could get started. And yet you get fucked over with workloads just meant to make sure that there are a lot of dropouts, professors like Doug who just don't give a shit about an individual's progress, mediocre unfinished design degrees because the school got bored with them, and a mentality that if you don't do well, it couldn't possibly be the school's fault.

My feelings exactly.

Meanwhile in the RTIS degree almost every professor is intrigued by your progress of learning as long as you're talking to the professor otherwise you're unknown to them. Even Volper loves to see people think and challenge his answer.

Also Boerkoel loves to see you progress. I don't know what you're getting at. Unless it's Hanson, Puskpak, Portegeys
