Re: What it takes to become a game designer
In my experience contacts aren't an absolute.
Knowing someone can help get you to the interview, but we have hired dozens of folks through the normal application process. In fact, some known applicants have been unhireable due to their poor communication skills.
My advice: Play a lot of games, read How To Win Friends and Influence People, and show up in clean clothes.
