  • Okay, but now what about the people that have this part,

    none of that means anything when you’ve hit the third month and you’re miserable and anxious and know this is what you’re in for now, everyday

    But not this part,

    ** I’m** at a point in life where I earn a good living

    (Emphasis mine)

    Unless I misread the tone of your message, its frankly useless and more than little insulting. No shit some jobs suck, but if its the difference between homelessness, or going hungry that’s not a choice at all.

    Exactly, its not that I’m not interested in gaming anymore. It’s that none of the games released recently are worth playing.

    In an endless sea of call of dooty clones and other derivative drek finding something decent has become hard. I want new ip damn it, not yet another remake or sequel.

    (because profit is possibly the most powerful motivator of innovation)

    I agree with most of what you finished with, but strongly disagree here. Scarsity, artifical or natural drives a need for resource distribution which then gives rise to a greedy profit motive.

    The internet and computers in general have largely shown that when resources are plentiful people will create for the shear desire to create. So much of the internet, and modern technology runs off software and hardware designed for free, or at extremely low cost.

    Linux, OpenSSL, heck Open anything, all built because people were dissatisfied with the existing commercial available model, or just wanted to create something new.

    Going beyond software the amount of free entertainment on the internet is staggering. Much of it created without seeking to use it primarily or even at all as a means of income.
