  • You’d be surprised with how many people in a large studio don’t play games. Not every job requires an understanding of games. Only a small amount of people work on gameplay. Like artists don’t need to like games to be good artists. A graphics programmer can build a great real time graphics renderer without having played any game. They just need to have a passion for programming graphics. The only people that should love games are the people that work on gameplay. Like the director, gameplay leads, QA etc.

    Why work in games then you ask. Because many of those jobs only exist in the games and movie industry. Like 3D animators aren’t exactly in demand outside of those two industries.
