So far I've found Perth to be fucking expensive. The least rent of a shitty house could be $100 per week. Though wages are higher then Melbourne and Sydney but every damn thing is more expensive here in western Australia.

You apply during your a levels, but besides education, you need to be very strong in your ECAs to stand a chance of getting scholarship from top universities.

I dont think I have talent in anything(sports, debates,etc) besides having creativity and being good in game coding and 3d modeling. Does that count as extra curriculars?

Don't have any talents? Alevels is where you start. Join the debate team, apply for MUNs, chess team, essay competition etc Whatever you can get your hands on, miss no opportunity.

Definitely. And if you're very good at coding and stuff and can apply it practically, then it will help you alot.


Does having a sixpack count?

:p

Does your sixpack have any practical usages? :p

I guess I'm not wasting my time indulging in my hobbies then :)

Definitely, keep on working it, it'll help you alot.


Look good and be admired,what more do you want :D



I have some experience messing around with game engines and stuff and can create basic maps on different engines.


Will this skill help?

I don't think messing around will help so much, but if you can create a software or an app or something like that, that'd be pretty good. I think Pleasant here made an mp3 firmware or something and he got a job cause of it. I don't remember exactly.

i've been in london for one and half a year now i have no talent whatsoever. have stupid issues with short term memory and concentration :p. i realise that having some skill or talent is a good thing when u wanna have a good life outside of pakistan as some places really do care about quality over quantity and really help people who are talented reach thier potential

they say you're born with talent.. u just have to find what ur talented in... now how the hell is one supposed to do that?

    The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.
