Real

Its been a long time since I did this, rather I had left doing this to be honest. 
Well now I feel I should take a dip back into it, not for the sake of it, but to rather to get down with what I feel and let people know what I feel about. 

So I am starting with Unreal Engine 4. This time around I am more focused than ever before, I have a plan witch which I think I'll follow, it is set out for a foreseeable amount of future. 
So to begin with. 
1. Get the bare basics down. Moving around in the window. How to make foilage, landscape and meshes. 


2. As I know I would feel impatient and would want to get on with making games, basic ones. So I thought lets get the basic games listed in UE4 tutorials down. 


3. I didn't want to leave the basics totally, I'll then do the entire basics from Virtuos Learning Hub beginners playlist. Get the general idea of things. 


4. Then get down to a bit more complex things, using Shooter Tutorials get the game up and running. Its a big project and will take time. 


5. Then I will start to get into the depth of the other systems in UE4. Materials, UI, AI, physics, optimization and everything pretty. Using the the documentation and if something needed to supplement it. 


6. Now is when I start to lose my way. Either start making a game of my own using the free assets in the store, which no doubt is great. Or learn the 3D Asset Production Pipeline and get my own models and assets. But I believe I would have to learn a bit of the production pipeline, but the point being that is that a good time to start? 


7. I love AI and gameplay. So I think now will be the time to get down and make some complex AI and nice gameplay elements. But shoukd I just make them as standalone project or incorporate into a game? 


8. Depending on how 7th play out this will work. I would now want to make a full fledged game and incorporate everything that I have learned and use it. 


9. Now I should iterate and keep on getting some more games out. Try to find some people to work along now! 


10. Well I guess this is too much in the future to decide what will happen then.  
I plan to stay on course this time and not get away from it, I can do it, just need to wait and stay committed and do whatever I have to do.
