ppl here acting like those earnings goes straight into their pockets have literally no idea how businesses operate. I'd be surprised if they keep more than 50% of that at the end of the month after all company expenses and taxes, which results in salaries well below industry standards for software engineering and 3D modeling.
A single software engineer earns between $100,000 and $200,000 per year. Even before taxes and company expenses, these guys are making way less than that with their Patreon earnings after splitting it.
Keep in mind also Europe is at war right now and have taken a big hit in economics. Energy and food prices and increased tremendously, which has rippling effects across all industries, making credit more expensive as well.
According to ChatGPT when I asked, it's likely just the rent alone is 10,000 SEK (roughly $1,000).
(Just remove the last number to convert from SEK to USD.)
That's fkn great and all, but why should any developer settle for that?Wow you can't live with 4k / month men i litterally live on 1200$ / month and can barely make it but i manage to make it work
if i was making 4k im starting to live like a fucking king with coke hookers and a fucking butler with 2k i stop struggling and just live with enough money to start saving in case of problem.
if they are 2 or 3 lads developping this game they take home almost 3k if you can't cover expense at 3k a month you need to fix your budget for real there something you do that need to stop or you are trying to live way higher than your money can cover
