The cold, hard truth is games are REALLY hard to make.
When you aren't concerning yourself with culture war bullshit, and you're just getting the most insufferable, pain in the ass to work with edgelords to make some secret sauce gamedev, EVEN THEN gamedev is an absolute fucking hellride likely doomed for failure.
I guess that wasn't hard enough.
It goes to show how taken for granted and misunderstood this entire venture of gamedev became in recent years as it was subverted not just by thes activists, but fairweather monetary vultures.
The deep pockets and the activists uplifted one another, told each other sweet lies that this would be wonderful and easy.
And this is the bed they've made for themselves.
