Triple A at least guarantees your paycheck until you’re laid off and then you get a severance. Which can happen at any moment. Also you have to do crunch.
Indie games don’t even guarantee you a stable paycheck. It’s sorta contingent on how well the game does. Unless it’s an established indie company in which case it’ll be triple A soon.
Nobody should be a game dev as their day job unless they’re a millionaire already. Otherwise, it works best as a side project to do while working as a dev in literally any other industry that requires devs.
Working as a game dev is just uh… dumb.
