If you have even a few hours to take this course for fun, absolutely do so! I never played any Zelda games before Tears of the Kingdom, and this opportunity really got me interested in the franchise and community. Dr Sochol really cares that his students are not overloaded, adequately challenged, and having fun applying machine design concepts to the game. You should never be worried about your grade if you show up and do the bare minimum. If you look up the press releases, you can see how on the first day he showed up with a Master Sword and Shield, with an epic intro. Since I took this course the first time it was offered, there were a few kinks to work out in regards to project density and focus, but it is clear that it will be even better going forward. |

No homework in the class which is nice but workload ends up piling up near deadlines for the first 2 projects you'll be completing. After first project presentations were done, we had only 4-5 days to get the second project fully completed as well which was pretty stressful, but other than that, Dr. Sochol's exams were fair (considering that he curves pretty heavily) and the class was pretty enjoyable as well. |

I loved this class. The projects are quite fun if you have a decent group and the overall workload is not bad at all. The grade scale is curved very heavily because Sochol has very high expectations so expect somewhwere in the 60-70 range to end up being an A. The exams are really tough but open note. Dr. Sochol can be odd sometimes with his expectations, but the course is great for those considering grad school. |
