The gaming industry is NOT what you think.
Let me drop some truth bombs.
Here are 10 harsh realities many ignore:
๐ญ. ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐จ๐ข๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ช๐ด ๐ฆ๐ข๐ด๐บ.
LOL, no. Itโs brutal. Itโs art, tech, and business smashed into one impossible puzzle.
๐ฎ. ๐๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐บ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ ๐ช๐ด ๐ข๐ฎ๐ข๐ป๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฌ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ.
Theyโre not. Pressure shows you whoโs in it for the team and whoโs out for themselves.
๐ฏ. ๐๐ตโ๐ด ๐ข ๐ค๐ข๐ด๐ฉ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ธ.
For who? Not you. Not yet. Youโll grind for 7-10 years before the moneyโs decent.
๐ฐ. ๐ ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ค๐ข๐ฏ ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐จ๐ข๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ต ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ข๐บ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ
You canโt. Playing games isnโt optional – itโs homework. And itโs never-ending.
๐ฑ. ๐๐ตโ๐ด ๐ข ๐ด๐ฆ๐ค๐ถ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ค๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ณ.
Wake up. Studios shut down. Projects fail. Stability in gaming has always been fragile.
๐ฒ. ๐ ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ญ๐ญ ๐จ๐ฆ๐ต ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ฆ ๐ค๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต๐ช๐ท๐ฆ ๐ณ๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต ๐ข๐ธ๐ข๐บ.
Nope. Youโll follow orders for YEARS before your ideas even hit the table.
๐ณ. ๐๐ตโ๐ด ๐ข ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ, ๐ฎ๐ข๐ต๐ถ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ณ๐บ.
No chance. Itโs a scrappy, messy grind fueled by passion and duct tape.
๐ด. ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ณ๐บ ๐ช๐ด ๐ง๐ณ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฅ๐ญ๐บ.
Stop. Itโs a high-stakes battlefield full of egos and drama. Get ready to earn your spot.
๐ต. ๐๐ตโ๐ด ๐ง๐ถ๐ฏ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฐ๐ณ๐จ๐ข๐ฏ๐ช๐ป๐ฆ๐ฅ.
Fun? Sure, sometimes. Organized? Rarely. Both at the same time? Never.
๐ญ๐ฌ. ๐๐ญ๐ข๐บ ๐ช๐ต ๐ด๐ข๐ง๐ฆ, ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฃ๐ฆ ๐ง๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ.
Playing it safe is a disaster. You have to take risks. Big risks. Thatโs how you win.
๐ด So why do it?
Because you LOVE GAMES. Because you CANโT IMAGINE doing anything else.
But if youโre here for easy money or a safe ride? Youโre in the wrong place.
