Old as fuck.

Anyway, it's not whether you "think" it's true--it is true. This is where a career in game design will land you.

I'm well aware of that Mr. Negative.

oh boy here we go

OT: That video seems to be aimed at kids who selected their dream job based on what they thought would be the coolest, with no consideration of the hardships involved tbh. Anybody who's actually serious about wanting to work in that industry will be well aware of the indie market saturation, and all of the other points addressed in the video, They'll likely be smart enough to take a few programming courses and whatnot.

Of course it's not for everybody in practice. I can't think of a single line of employment that every person on earth will excel at/enjoy a permanent career in.

Why do people keep making these canned Text to Speech animations like this? To be honest they look incredibly tacky and are kind of hard to take seriously. What even is that program?

example (I know it's not the same text to speech program but I've seen it before):

Probably because they sound like stoners over a mic and don't want to take 3 months of voice acting classes to be able to sound like a normal human being tbh

I love how in the first minute I thought the cardboard shitter was just a naive young lad learning the soul-crushing reality, then I realized he's just an idiot.

but anyways I think the soul-crushing reality only exists because people go into it with unrealistic expectations
like learning astrophysics with the expectations you become a real astronaut
