I am getting mixed signals. In general, everybody is saying that being an artist is not the path to riches. Only a fraction of a percent become rich. Game development is no exception. Game development is a form of art, as is content creation on YouTube or streaming on Twitch. To become a successful YouTuber or streamer, you have to sell your soul to the algorithm. Should I just make everything a hobby and have fun? Stream on Twitch, play games, do 3D modeling, game development, and make music, and all of this just for the fun? Is trying to please the gods of the algorithm worse than working in a corporation?
