      every kid in the 90s wanted to be a game tester once we knew the profession existed.

        I had never thought about recording it on a VCR. That was interesting.

          Can confirm, was kid in the 90s. Sadly the reality of working in the industry did not measure up. Same as being a paleontologist, strangely enough.

            โ€œManโ€ฆ I became a paleontologist in the hopes that, one day, a billionaire would need my help creating a theme park full of dinosaur clones. It hasnโ€™t happened yet and Iโ€™m starting to worry it never will.โ€

              I read that it wasnโ€™t really that fun to be a tester back then and especially now. Imagine having to play a level over and over and over again, then having to fill out sheets about what is wrong with it.

              And that infamous commercial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRWvfMLl4ho really oversold it.
