      It really sucks and I wish artists would check their privilege instead of talking about how much those of us born with brains that cannot do the amazing feats you can (no sarcasm, it is amazing) don't appreciate you

      This is probably a jackass post. It's just I looked up how much it would cost to hire someone to make some very basic pixel art sprites so I could make a simple game, and I found an article literally saying I should pay $1000 to $20000 for every pixel art sprite

      That's saying that the work a pixel artist does on one sprite is equivalent to between 3% and 30ish% of what I made annually when I was in fact a professor, with a good job at the top of my former field

      And like... Maybe it's really that hard? But no skill I have ever had or could have has been valued or will ever be valued at that rate. not even if I become an expert programmer. Not even close to that rate

      And meanwhile it basically means hobby game dev is only for genius polymaths who can draw and code

      Also, please understand if you can draw, you are special. There are a lot of skills where you can put in your x thousand hours and become competent through dedication, but art isn't one. Not alone. You need special brain stuff. I know bc I have tried SO HARD

      basically the only answer anyone has for me about"what should I do with my creative ideas"is"let them fester inside you forever, and don't dare express resenrtment toward the people who have an innate talent and could help you express those ideas,but only for $ you'll never have"

      Like I've been told it would be unethical to be a collaborator with an artist I wasn't paying who was equally enthusiastic about my game idea, even if I provided the coding and writing, I'd be exploiting them even though neither of us would make money unless we finished

      Replying to @BootlegGirl

      I don't think that's the usual take, the take is it's exploitative if you do this and only one of the partners keeps the IP rights to the project (because of rare cases where they did break out and make millions and the artist got left behind)

      Replying to @arthur_affect @BootlegGirl

      Is this some kind of sentiment unique to the game dev world specifically? Because the collab situation Ellie describes has always been super common in comics. There have been so many indie collabs like it. I’ve never heard of anyone seeing this sort of partnership as unethical.

      "Deferred compensation" (there's no money now but if we get any we'll split it) is the way basically every low level indie film works
