Everyone thinks they want to be a games developer until they realise they actually have to do a shit ton of work, that's what I've noticed. It's usually when they settle down on a project the burnout happens really fast and then you never see them posting again lol or they're just perpetually fiddling around with projects for fun. Unless you can do ridiculous shit like I do where I'm up until 6:00am researching code ( Now I'm more onto the designing phase which is great ) you're not going to last. Obviously not mandatory or anything, it's just those are the kind of hours you're realistically looking at to push that project out. I don't make money until I've got a project to sell, it's that simple and that's what a lot of people don't get about game dev.
