Smart people can end up with retarded opinions and incorrect priors, but generally speaking, one of the most critical talents that you need as a solo indie game developer is the ability to learn new things very quickly, since there is a shit ton of skills that you'll need to learn, and there's not enough time in your lifespan if you learn too slowly. How quickly you can learn a topic is most directly measured with IQ.

You'd be surprised. The barrier to entry is quite low. There also appears to be a bimodal distribution of developers who have gotten to the point of downloading an engine and trying. There are the <115IQ midwit "kenyan helicopter flopdev NGMIggers" who don't have the level of introspection necessarily to figure out they're producing worthless garbage, and thus can remain delusional enough to persist in their fruitless endeavor. In the 115-145 range or so, you'll be smart enough to figure out what a truly monumental task creating an good game that people actually want to play is. This is the range where many neverdevs rot away in. It's not really until the 145+ range where you're really able to filter out all the noise and follow a realistic path to success.

Unfortunately for many of you, there is an IQ range where you're not as retarded as the Cris-like kenyan helicopter flopdevs with so little ability for self-reflection that they are able to delude themselves into working on garbage for years on end that no one will ever want to play, but you're also not smart enough to learn all of the necessary skills to succeed as a solo indie game developer in a reasonable amount of time. Solo indie game development is one of the absolute hardest things you can do in life, and only the best of the best stand a chance at succeeding. For most of you, your best shot at making it is going through the standard normie route of going to a decent university, and then looking for an industry job at a large AAA studio where you can imposter your way through like all the other wagies. You will likely never be able to make a commercially successful video game all on your own.

And so what I am getting towards is the philosopher stone. In christianity Jesus symbolizes this, in a fallen Israel he attempts to redeem humanity he expresses the failure of Israel and her people and is killed. The philosopher's stone will not be found in the treasure room of a king but in the darkest lands beneath filth. Divine transmutation prefers those who struggle and blesses them but maddens to immature who leap towards her, the madonna: virgin mother. From genesis, job, psalms, christ, chaoskampf, etc., and so much more, we are learning one thing, that transmutation does not happen when you flee but from struggle. The church attempted to save people by creating an authority with attempts to constrict the mind, the mind of protestants perhaps may be among the more dulled and eroded. Thus I can only suspect the end result be that humanity's will to power be seized away to become obedient pets of the moral authority who assumes to know god (again protestants are amongst the worse). Life is tragic, life is unfair, and we deserve nothing and do not deserve what we do have. So we are not saved by cleaning our hands, but by laboring. Ask not god for lighter burdens but for broader shoulders. And no the hands of the righteous are never free from dirt nor are they smooth and soft. There is still good and bad, but virtue is neither. God is virtuous. Virtue in this dynamic universe is the turn of the a wheel, and they way you turn your orb is not preordained. Thank god life is meaningless. Ars vitae is how one controls virtu to create.
It is all the old saying life imitates art. You cannot find success in living because you struggle without meaning. As we learn from Dostoevsky life without hope of meaning is suffering. And from Albert Camus in an absurd world, we must imagine sisyphus happy. You are like sisyphus and atlas, tasked with carrying yourself. This is what my game is about.

I'm well aware, but it's highly impractical to dwell on it. Life's not fair. All you can do is to make the best out of it. This is simply the difference in opinion from myself in the far right and you still trapped in introvert hell.

There is much one can learn through teaching others. Empathy is one of the most necessary skills in any creative endeavor.
