There's a lot of crossover between games, and film, tv, construction, architecture, advertising, entertainment, media production, and just general development and graphical design in general. The video game industry is not as unique as you think.
People have warned about the volatility and negatives of the video game industry for decades. They're well known. But there are unique and cool aspects of those projects that still draw people to them despite the known downsides.
It's a bit like hearing someone with a beach house complain about hurricanes. We can have empathy for them while acknowledging that they agreed to that risk voluntarily, and that it was a well known and well documented risk.
