It doesn't matter if I agree with you in principle. If you don't play the game, your career will dry up. The world won't care.

From your other posts, your main problem was that you didn't want to / couldn't move to where jobs were, not that low level gamedev code is no longer being written - VR and AR are testifying to that.

How is this client side rewrite every few months fundamentally different from the broken window fallacy? as in, unsustainable because it adds no value overall?
