Question, does anyone ever get over that "new starter" feel? Whatever i do i continue feeling like i'm new basically forever, i've been at my current job 3 years now & making games a decade but i still feel new to both. I guess its just because there's so much to learn?

I think its more noticable if i'm in a place where I do not feel welcome, where people get territorial about the design work, their 'empire' not to be interfered with. I feel (or am made to feel) ignorant or like I don't know what I am talking about or should not be listened to
Absolutely, I've been pretty lucky/privileged that the design teams I've been a part of and am on now have all been pretty welcoming, lovely & filled with a lot of knowledgeable people to learn from. And that preach! I'm totally against the design empire mentality too.
