Yes, because it's challenging
This but to a ludicrous degree
Joseph Adams
game dev is basically drag and drop now
Alexander Cooper
Graphics are no fun to do
Gabriel Parker
Why should i remake the wheel you dumbass?
Jaxon Price
how's school?
Charles Perry
Requires a lot of trial and error and a number redesigns to make something passable. Which you can say about development in general, but game design seems to be especially the case here.
Noah Anderson
just dont do what mass effect andromeda did
Evan Williams
work on augmented reality instead :3
Cameron Lee
Yeah, if you want to create the Uninspired Unity Platformer #314987. Actually good games take time, skill and an insane amount of dedication. If you don't believe me just try and create a good game. Let's see you drag and drop fun into your game

Because there’s a ton of money in it, and a ton of people wanna do it. Projects from large companies with tons of money balloon in size and complexity and you either work on these projects or compete with them. If you want to work on those projects you’re competing with pretty smart people who love video games and who are willing to put up with crunch times.
ANY industry with those features is going to create products that are hard to make.
Benjamin Wright
Because otherwise you'll be the #421987 dev making bullshit games no one cares about with premade assets? Or do you have millions of dollars to spend on unique assets when using these super duper hi tech engines? You want to know why most indies go for "8-bit" style? It's because it's viable, dumb-dumb
Kayden Perez
games are kind of the most advanced software out there
has to run at a consistent framerate, so you can't have slow or sometimes slow code
graphics constantly updating
meanwhile the brainlets at microsoft think writing a terminal emulator is this huge project
Angel Jackson
It isn't but you're at the mercy of if your game becomes a meme or not
Nobody plays games anymore they want to buy it so they can pretend to fit in to some online club
It's all about sucking off some youtube celeb who doesn't play it either
Caleb Murphy
You should try harder, user!
Joseph Phillips
It really depends on what kind of game you want to develop.
Christian Williams
I built an MMO in 24 hours AMA.
Jeremiah Brown
does it a graphics?
Isaiah Rogers
Who needs a graphics?
Henry Gomez
It's not so hard, it's just that if you're making a game alone, you have to learn how to be an artist, coder, musician, and writer simultaneously.
