Yeah but what makes me sad is that smaller independent studios cannot maintain an industry of artists alone and thus the gaming and movie world is going to exit the golden age we have been in.

There needs to be large, boring more “institutional” companies making large movie or game projects to provide the capacity for entry level jobs at scale, to provide more stable places for an artist to work while raising a family or to provide a stepping stone in employment between more meaningful jobs at smaller more focused companies.

I love Indie Games, I love smaller art projects of all kinds, but my point is the labor market is broken in these industries and it can lead to nowhere else than collapse of the industry.

This is a perfect example of the myth that capitalism is efficient, it can be seen here clearly that it leads directly to a periodic shattering of industries leaving only a couple of massive companies to buy up the entire landscape and consolidate control over the industry after the cataclysm.
