Topic	Steam is looking grim for indie developers. 82% games make less than min. wage
YellowSUV 03/25/18 10:10:40 PM #8:	Games are so much easier to make than they were 10-20 years ago. There are just way too many games in the market and people can't play them all. Basically you have to have talent AND get lucky if you want to succeed in the video game industry (Unless you want to be an overworked codemonkey for a big name company). Betting you can live off of being a video game creator is a risky move like betting you can live on being a rockstar. If you are an indie developer you should do it for fun and not expect to live off it. --- We all live in a Yellow SUV! a Yellow SUV! <cite>YellowSUV posted [p:898492505] in Steam is l...
