Sorry man, I know it's rough but you did get far for a really competitive position.

what do you mean how fast? how many days? Each season has specific things tied to it - different fish, crops, trees, etc. Specifically if you're looking to round out the museum or the community center you will have to wait for specific seasons to look for those items. You don't lose anything by missing it the first go around, it's just annoying having to wait and the feeling of anxiety I got for not being 100% efficient was enough to make me stop playing.

I mean that should be an advantage though since it is a potential area you could improve upon so, dont lose hope!I think I know the exact question that was the nail in my coffin too
Ugh, if I could go back and do that last interview over...

if you don't mind me asking, what was the question and your answer?

Experience for the next gig. Good luck duder.
Don't worry, when they leave for Twitch or Patreon, you can apply again.

Nah don't worry about it. The most you could miss out on are festivals and stuff if you don't go to them. Other than that there are certain crops, fish, foraging etc that are season specific (which you might need for bundles), but that's about it. The seasons are 28 days, just make sure any season specific crops you plant will be grown/harvested before the next season starts. Other than that, try not to worry about it, you have infinite time in game so enjoy yourself!

Thanks you guys! I suppose that it is infinite after all, so I shouldn't fret. I probably shouldn't play the game right before going to actual work is all
I'm only familiar with some Harvest Moons; does Stardew even have something like rivals getting married to potential love interests?
I can't really think of anything else that would be actually time sensitive.
That sucks. I'm sure you did fine too, regardless of where you felt like you landed. Experience for the next one.
It was just a simple "what games are you looking forward to for the rest of the year?" and I was so nervous and so prepared for them to ask me a bunch of technical stuff so I was completely caught off guard that I couldn't think of a single fucking game coming out for the rest of the year and so I just blurted out "Uhh, nothing really" just to break the awkward silence. I followed it up with a "because all the big games I was anticipating this year have already come out." which probably didn't help either. God, I'm so dumb
Edit - sorry to derail the thread with this. i'm at work currently so I can't exactly vent to my coworkers about it

if that was the deciding factor for a rejection (we don't know), then we got a very good producer incoming.

Oh gosh
I'm so sorry Kai
If I was there for a technical position I would've frozen up as well :XKillerDark

Nah they just stay single, there is no time limit on them. You might run into needing an item that you can't get unless you are in certain seasons
needs to be raining in order to buy the required item to get married

wait this was for the GB position? Now I feel bad for suggesting to watch the playdate
I'm legit surprised there was never a Giantbomb Unplugged when Austin was on the staff since he literally does an Actual Play podcast as a side job. Listening to Vinny and Alex try to explain D&D to Dan was fun but I know for fact Austin would be able to explain it better than anyone.

Ugh same thing happened to me during a programming interview. I went in there expecting to only whiteboard interview and for them to ask alot of technical application questions and the interviewer at one point just asked "What do you like to do outside of programming? What are your hobbies?" and for some reason I blanked really hard. Was nervous and fumbled over such a simple question. It gets to the best of us but I'm sure you still did a great job and can use this experience later for bigger and better things.

Oh god, that was probably it. So many big titles are coming out this year. Bummer.
But honestly, I feel like you know games more than Abby and she got it so I'm not sure that's the most important question.

Don't stress my dude. I once told an interviewer on the last round of meetings that I didn't really like pizza. I love pizza, but I rarely eat it as part of my diet, so the words just kind of came out and I feel like that might have been the nail in the coffin for that job.

Whenever asked if you post on Giant Bomb GAF in job interviews you should always say no.
Congrats on getting as far as you did though. I'm sure they get a huge amount of applicants.
You get asked about posting on GAF?

It's ok Kai
I once ended a really good interview at
by not being able to walk out the front door. It was locked for no reason at all and I looked like a right idiot trying to get out.
I was a setup dammit.
But really, it's probably impossible to say why they didn't choose you. Don't think too much about it because you'll only convince yourself that it was all your fault.

Sometimes they probably have a better qualified applicant. Maybe they have more experience, who knows. Never hit yourself too hard about it.

Honestly the loot box system in OW is completely fine now for me. Between the 'buying with coins' and no duplicate patches for events, I've gotten 6/8 of the new skins just from 20 dollars. And that's as someone who doesnt have a lot of time to play in the first week so you could easily grind them out across the month if you play a lot
I dont think loot boxes in other games is going to last not because of protesting or anything. I just don't think many people are going to be interested in it or find it useful.
