Ah, that's a pity. Well, Dublin is nice but Irish weather isn't exactly something to be desired. Where are you living now that you're interested in potentially studying in Ireland? I loved Dublin actually, it's a really great city once you get to know it. I say that having travelled a lot also! I'm living about an hour and a half drive from it. It's not terribly far though, no.
Yeah I think it's important to know how to market if you're ever going to be managing a team or anything similar. For me marketing came as an extension of design and a necessity of getting my game's name out there. So for my next project I'll likely be formulating a strategy and I'm sure I'll learn from that too since previously my strategies came from trial and error due to lack of knowledge. But you're right there's a lot more to it than people realise.
I plan on starting my Masters at the end of next year, but of course there are some things that need to fall into place before that but that's the dream!
I did, I loved LoK too. Maybe it lacked the same charm ATLA did but I'd be happy if the series continued honestly. It's a pity to see it end. Haven't found many things like it since. ALSO Mellisandre is one of my favourite characters in GoT, nice choice.
