Apple probably makes more profit from Gaming than from every game developer on the planet combined, despite not making any games.
If anyone is thinking of working in the Games Industry: don't. All of the profit will be skimmed off by platform owners. Its why wages and conditions are so poor at development studios.
This is probably unlikely to change given that Apple is the #1 most owned stock by the US Congress: https://investinganswers.com/articles/10-most-popular-stocks-owned-congress https://investinganswers.com/articles/10-most-popular-stocks...
- JiNCMG 5y agoThis is BS. The publishers make the larger take. If a Game Developer can release a game on it's own without a Publisher (with iOS allows) then the developer will make most of the money. Ask Epic how much they made when Unreal was sold at stores. Less than 40%!
- Agentlien 5y agoThere are more studios than ever with great work conditions and reasonable pay. Of course, it depends a lot on where you live. But, living in Sweden, I've had decent working conditions and wage across two companies and several games.
