Ann, I made a video with subtitles about game developers who made successful projects and earned millions dollars. Than you are worse than them?

I think this video is kinda misleading. Yes there are some games which made it's creator(s) rich but there are thousands which didn't make profit at all. It's almost like saying: 'Hey there are these guys who won the lottery. Are you worse at picking numbers than they are?'

Even high budget projects has a chance to fail and we often see big game dev companies become bankrupt. In a GDC talk Danny Day says when you do a project you need to have reserves in case your game wouldn't make money at all. I do agree with him. Self-confidence is important but you need to be aware of the chances you have.

If you want to make money it's better to find another job. If you want to create games you are welcome to do it. .)
