maybe you're depressed because all the options you've been given are bad maybe you have options that other people can't give you maybe you're a dancing star who wishes to be destroyed in its own fire not weighted down by well-meaning candle-snuffers

All I need is for a team of people to, for far too little compensation, implement my video game concepts exactly as I dictate them.

right? that's what money *should* be for; draconian enforcement of vision might have to juke it somehow, maybe do what you can as a generalist, get people on board after you've delivered a proof of concept, get some funding there's money out there, looking for less risk

Nah. If you can't fund me at my worst you don't deserve me at my best IMHO

Put another way, I don't want to work for anyone with less than phenomenal, near perfect judgement. The midas mulligans of the world who know what a person is worth with one look. It's the ultimate filter.

Put another way, I don't want to work in a world where such people don't exist because in such a world, work is a lie

is, uh, that why you don't do work on your own projects, enough to prove that risking the time and effort to help you might be rewarding

Basically
