Sure there are some companies that are far more in tune with their fanbase and have an actual dialogue with the community. But in the end the game is being made solely for money end of story. Although apparently not in akuseru's world.

 

Here is a news flash, developers make a lot more money by going into things like applications for various networks, so much more than they would make from games.  The hours are a lot better too.

 

They only reason a dev should be making games is if that is a source of enjoyment, because the hours and money really are not it.

So what, that exact same argument can be made for any job. Just because I love what I do doesn't mean I would do it for free. Akerasu is saying that some devs don't care about profit, that is complete and utter bullshit.

 

Actually no it can't be made. Because Software Developers all have the same skills. Meanwhile what other jobs out there have the exact same set of skills where there is a discrepancy in pay?

Well they clearly all don't have the same set of skills since some devs are able to pump out AAA after AAA titles while others not so much. You can argue budget but in my experience a game with amazing gameplay still gets recognition, even in todays "HD" gaming era.

I don't really get where your going with this though? There are plenty of jobs that have that discrepancy in pay, make you go through utter shit and in the end don't pay all that well considering. I won't even bother naming them since their pretty obvious. But I don't get how it relates to making profit?

Anyways why are you awake its ridiculously late where your at and you have class tomorrow I think.
