mixture of arrogance, entitlement, and high expectations of their own work.
Picture this: you're one of those "idea guys" who thinks everything they come up with is pure gold, and you'd be making millions if you only had a team to bring them to fruition. But instead of being completely talentless, you actually do have some skill, and along with using all the resources of the internet, you manage to make some shitty 2D sidescroller. 20 years ago, you would have put this up on a flash game website for free, but this is not 20 years ago. Instead, you upload it to steam for $19.99US. When people don't appreciate your genius, you get mad, because it's unfair that you worked so hard for so long for no payoff. You externalize your failure and blame everyone else because your fragile little ego can't handle the idea that maybe you're just not that good, and maybe your ideas aren't that brilliant.

That's basically a lot of indie developers.
