    True, but once again: [quote]Moving on to just game developers, we have the annual Game Developer Salary Survey over at Gamasutra. For the U.S. in 2013, game developers made an average of $83,060, while Canadian devs made $71,445. Develop ran its own UK salary survey, coming up with an average salary of £29,358 ($46,591 at the time). Polski GameDev offered up its own infographic showing local salaries broken down job type. The average salary overall? 4,458 zł per month ($1,446 per month at the time). Total annual average salary? $17,352. [/quote] Yep, Polish devs get paid roughly 1/4th what 'Murican devs do. Add-in that CD Project Red actually used an updated version of the engine from Witcher II where as Destiny built the Tiger Engine directly along-side the game itself. It's also a purely Singleplayer title where-as Destiny also had to nab a military grade array of servers that manages the PvE aspects of the game as well as the data tracking from PvP (while leaving the Crucible matches themselves in Peer-Peer. Using the servers to track what's popular, what's getting kills, and how you as a player perform.). Get out of here, you're no Lord GabeN.
