Love all your videos especially the day in the life series! I think it would be cool to see a day in the life of a retro video game store worker or a day in the life of a Puroresurā
he was clueless, but i'm pretty sure they knew he was coming and saw it was okay, even putting a little advertisement. The code vein demo tho, i'm sure he didn't think paulo was gonna ask to see it.
7:03 so this is the director of Code Vein. Sir, i want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this incredible game. We are waiting for Code Vein 2. You're awesome!
@@EffigyOfAdam I was just going to say that here in America, almost everyone is loud as f@ck and wants all eyes on them. I'm actually really sad America is what it is. Japan seems so organised, efficient, and respectful.
From time to time I return to watch this video, I even memorized Paolo's lines. It gives me a sense of innocent happiness -cannot describe it better- to watch a guy like Masa going to work in his quiet office, taking a nap, coding and then going back home to build his GUNDAM models.
Hello. I'm currently watching this video for the 7th time maybe. Kinda lost track. xD I don't get why so many people think he is miserable. I am a software developer myself and started watching this video when I was still in my apprenticeship. I might not work at a game development studio, but I also enjoy codeing all day. :)
Ungrave it’s written in C++, which isn’t exactly the safest language. Showing the code would make certain hacking, like stack or buffer overflow attack, a lot easier.
@@jhovieanggoro5914 The first one was C#, the second was C++. Both were pretty much meaningless classes. He probably just created a new dummy project and started typing whatever came to mind that looked vaguely realistic to anyone who doesn't know code.
What, you thought it's a godlike entity, beyond human interaction? Everything that isn't natural construction on this planet, is in fact man made. Which means someone out there, either created it, or manufactured it. And people mostly wouldn't mind you asking them some question, as long as you're not rude or interrupting terribly.
Wow, Bandai is so kind to its workers. Even letting them have naps to rest their brains. I'm glad to see such healthy environments becoming more of a thing in Japan. I wonder how Masa is doing now 2 years later. It would be nice to see how some of these people are doing again.
I worked for very big companies and trust me it's not them being kind, they don't give a sh*t about people, they only do it because they understood that it brings them some kinds of benefits like : - a tired salary men is a less productive worker - they understood that having people working overtime everyday is toxic for their health - they care about their image + talents are actualy more willing to enter a compagny if they can work less It's the same about coffee breaks, companies worldwide only allows it cause you'll be more productive afterwards
Or he asked it before to take a vid,he gets some permission before to take a vid Its common sense that its rude to walk on a big company and just ask random employees.
I'm glad to see more and more modern companies adapting more relaxed working hours for their staff. Definitely good progress for people's well being and productivity😊
The way this guys whispers to the camera like a national geographic nature documentary cracks me up . "Here we have a wild Japanese game developer at his desk. One of his rivals has just entered his territory. Will he react with aggression? Let's watch!"
The Japanese are so polite. Like this dude literally wandered around their office all day and just asked random company hotshots to tell him what they're doing lmfao

kenneth macatopo it’s just anime dark souls so if you like dark souls you’ll probably enjoy it I don’t think it’s quite as hard. I’ve heard good thing though
@@Jamatran256 I would play games rather than resting in those chair rooms or building models. I would just buy the models like 13:01 :@. Building them is no fun imo.
wished they made the combat a little more free flow like an action game and less as a souls games. Like give off that feel that your playing a crazy anime game i guess.
Building gundam at night till you pass out must be so satisfying, you'd be knocked out cold after a long day of work and finishing off with building figures, that's definitely gonna make the best sleep
@@ふしぐろうめぐみ Well, for most of the game prototypes, you will need to playtest and ensure that it works first before actually developing the graphics and stuffs, otherwise if there's any bugs in the game, they can just fix it right away.
lol I'm sure he asks them off camera first before he approaches and then starts asking questions. Many of his videos look like the walk ups are "staged" in that it's way too convenient only the people in the videos are there and they have things to show the camera lol. Perfect example is when he went to that meetings where the team was working on a "secret" project and had nothings posted up or showing on the laptops that would hint at what they are working on on camera lol.
@@dr6770 yeah, part of the culture on shows and interviews is that it's all scripted. But hey, whatever works for them and Paolo! Just glad we get to see so much.
@@WearYourGrasses how is that scripted lol? do you think those people would really go to all the trouble for a UA-cam video instead of doing their work lol
I'd picture a fighting game room packed with people debating over the last chars and patches released with the director and assistants. Feedbacks all day long. Looks way more peaceful this way though.
@@PaolofromTOKYO hey man I wish you all the success with what you're doing. Been my dream to visit Japan since I was 10 and have been obsessed with the culture since that age too. Love this stuff.
Great video, from my long career in the Information Technology field, programmers job is one of the hardest, most stressful and under appreciated, it require life long learning as the technology will constantly evolve. Programmers will be lucky to last more than 10 years before burning out and branch into something else. Wishing Masa all the best
23? He looks like 17. Japanese people are blessed, they skip middle age completely, they are just tenagers most of their life and suddenly become respectable elders.
Well yea because they get into the work force young then get destroyed by the terrible work-life balance. 20 years of that will cause you to age at double the rate lol.
seriously lol. they were probably told there would be a film crew beforehand. in the Japanese company i worked for you can't even take your phone out outside the cafeteria and locker rooms.
This guy lives the ultimate nerd dream, work as coder to make games, work in casual clothes with free drinks, hangout with friends for good drinks and food, watch gundam, build gundam until he sleeps.
video games or programmming succcs every bit of your life until, you'll regret not having companion. But having companion in the long term is also shit...
@@mikedamacenos you can see at 6:46 his vs code screen with C# (ASP.NET Framework) and a Dockerfile in another tab used for building a cointainer image to host the web app. On the explorer over the left you can see all the assets for building a web service.
I'm learning coding about 2 years but not exactly 2 years since I've procrastinated but seeing this video again reminded me of what i wanted to again and I've gained motivation to keep my self studying again everyday so yea I'll do my best see you again in here after college in 4 years
Same here man! At the time I found this video it was 2020 and I was in my second year of programming. While I didn’t really slack off, this still gave me more motivation to work on my coding. FASt forward to today, I am currently working as a software intern
Thanks for doing this, as someone who is into game development seeing the life of a game developer from Japan is very insightful and interesting. Japan is the country that helped make the gaming market huge after all.
@@dominicharrington992 i mean in general Like how come Microsoft decided to join the gaming industry It probably saw sony a Japanese company go crazy with the ps1 I should've said We wouldn't have xbox.
Not going to lie, I'm pausing the video and taking a look at his code :D Interestingly they used the Unreal Engine for code vein and the code the guy is writing in is all in English even the custom functions he's clearly got going. I wonder if they have overseas programmers who take a look at it as well? I've been coding for about 4 years now and I'm a little disturbed that I can read and make sense of bits of code even from just a couple of seconds footage. Edit: Oh wait, in the later video there's some Japanese kanji, I think those are comments though, yep, just double checked 10:11, so programming in English, comments in Japanese.
I used to work as a programmer and to be honest, I hated it. Being in front of a computer coding for hours can really burns you out. It's something you really have to love. Programming is not for everyone.
Well as a Game Development graduate what you say is really true!especially game programming is more complicated than other programmers fields,tbh my favorite and best field in games development is 3D modelling
What kinda of coding you think he was doing ? Was it tedious low end developer coding (like idk UI menus or something, how a door opens in a game-I have no experience obviously lol) I’m just curious ? I think the coding he’s doing has a lot to do if he enjoys it. I know they do check each other’s coding.
@@s.a.r.junior like I said, you have to love programming. It is hard to be in front of a computer for 8, 10, 12 hours every day. I know, I used to be a programmer.
Imagine walking around tennis courts making a random video and one of the top tennis coaches shows up. Would you be awe struck? What is a big deal for you is not a big deal for a bunch of people.
I love this video, but you should have interviewed Masa more, like asking him about what he does in the company, like for example if he's debugging a game or something... You could have also asked which programming languages does he knows, etc.
@@iMCOCOarmy Do ya really think a company like BANDAI NAMCO needs any MORE advertising? The name Bandai Namco is enough to know that they created Pacman. How stupid you can be?
@@ranjanbiswas3233Pretty stupid apparently. If BANDAI NAMCO didn't want the publicity, the dude wouldn't even have gotten through the front door. They're not doing stuff like this out of the goodness of their hearts...
I'm 16 year old, currently learning Front End Web development, to work in the IT Department is one of my main goal, watching these kind of videos motivates me to work much harder :) Wish me luck...
seriously, i almost lost my shit when that guy said "we are working on a game called TEKKEN 7 and I am the game director." I was like what!!!!! That's the guy!!!! so cool
I always wondered how the world would be if everyone had the same respect and regard for each other like the Japanese do for each other. Truly a unique culture, I wish I could have lived in Japan for a while. Probably would have stayed there permanently had I ever visited.
So this is the future that awaits me, sitting 24/7 hours in a chair just typing and typing and praying for the ide dont show error compiling. i accept the challenge
ITADAKIMASU! That was the term I was looking for in your Japanese mene phrases video! Thank you. Wow they let you into the office part of Bandai-Namco. Dude you're a legend! ONG you were there when they were making Tekken7! WOW!
@@disrael2101 If you are lucky enough to do what you love to do you are blessed. He lives to work not work to live. I love how he hangs out with his Friends on Friday their "Version" of Happy Hour.
This was a wonderful video. Thanks for making it. It's way useful for programmers/developers to have an insight of how personal routines could be done. I how you can do more of these.
I can't believe that you were inside Bandai Namco and casually asking people about the games they were developing. I would have been starstruck while talking to Tekken 7 and Code Vein's game directors.
I'm glad he treated everyone like normal people. What was crazy to me was how polite they were to a UA-camr making career videos. I'm sure he had permission, but everyone genuinely seemed friendly instead of annoyed that they had to put up with someone interrupting their work flow.
He's being polite, I'm sure he's very aware. How would you like someone to come into your work place with a camera and start goggling over you... He is supposed to be covering a coder not the tekken dev lead.
@@drejaquez regardless you consider yourself a gamer no? So even if you didn't play Tekken would your response be the same if you were the interviewer? Overall I just made light of it. I'm a gamer and even I dont play Tekken anymore but my response to seeing what they are doing wouldn't be along the line of what I said in the original comment. "cool , now let's look at snacks " ( he didnt say that but you get what I'm saying lol)
@@Juke172 But he had a normal working time of 8h(9h if you count 1h breaks which is normal). Guessing nap time is just a bonus, company rather have the people clear headed writing code then tired and messing up and have to redo work.
@@Juke172 Not everywhere. In IT companies it's not uncommon to have much of free time actually, as long as you do your job. That's how Scrum works. You have tasks for 1-2 week period and if you do it faster it usually means free time or working on something with low priority.
@@Hato1992 Yeah I'm working in IT company and I can relate to that, that's why IT companies implemented monthly salaries, to motivate you to complete tasks faster because you ain't getting shit for staying overtime(well, depends on the contract)
This is a weeaboo's dream come true: 1. Living in Japan? Check 2. Working at a game company? Check 3. Can sleep at a job? Check 4. Play game at a job? Check 5. Nice senpais and boss who also play games? Check 6. Drink and have fun after work in Japan? Check 7. Live alone in Tokyo and be a free man? Check
Ikr!? I've been practicing my Japanese and coding skills every day (for a year now) so that I might one day get a chance of having such a job. It might never happen regardless but this video just gave me a motivation boost to keep at it.

@@Jamatran256 I would play games rather than resting in those chair rooms or building models. I would just buy the models like 13:01 :@. Building them is no fun imo.
by playing, theyre testing lol, big difference.
That's beta tester job or debugger
@Ryo Zero workers can use them at their leisure as he said in the vid,it's just that people rather use the time off to rest,eat or talk with people
The dev on Codevein’s smile when Paolo asked if he could show him the game made me so happy. He looked so excited and proud of it!
wished they made the combat a little more free flow like an action game and less as a souls games. Like give off that feel that your playing a crazy anime game i guess.
They did work hard for 5 years !!
That smile was cute when he realises that people are interested in a game you directed/produced and developed...
@Bzake why did you do that ?? you didnt like it ??
@Bzake Too hard? Problems with the game?
@Bzake Ah, i see. I understand you.
Building gundam at night till you pass out must be so satisfying, you'd be knocked out cold after a long day of work and finishing off with building figures, that's definitely gonna make the best sleep
"You can play anytime you want..."
No. It's for testing purposes.
😂
Is it true
@@ふしぐろうめぐみ Well, for most of the game prototypes, you will need to playtest and ensure that it works first before actually developing the graphics and stuffs, otherwise if there's any bugs in the game, they can just fix it right away.

lol I'm sure he asks them off camera first before he approaches and then starts asking questions. Many of his videos look like the walk ups are "staged" in that it's way too convenient only the people in the videos are there and they have things to show the camera lol. Perfect example is when he went to that meetings where the team was working on a "secret" project and had nothings posted up or showing on the laptops that would hint at what they are working on on camera lol.

Same here man! At the time I found this video it was 2020 and I was in my second year of programming. While I didn’t really slack off, this still gave me more motivation to work on my coding. FASt forward to today, I am currently working as a software intern
Thanks for doing this, as someone who is into game development seeing the life of a game developer from Japan is very insightful and interesting. Japan is the country that helped make the gaming market huge after all.
Basically without Japanese game developers i think we wouldn't
Have xbox or playstation

Not going to lie, I'm pausing the video and taking a look at his code :D Interestingly they used the Unreal Engine for code vein and the code the guy is writing in is all in English even the custom functions he's clearly got going. I wonder if they have overseas programmers who take a look at it as well? I've been coding for about 4 years now and I'm a little disturbed that I can read and make sense of bits of code even from just a couple of seconds footage.

I think it is not for atleast you. Coz I have my game launched and also I am a unity game engine game dev and I enjoy it.
