You're absolutely right. I think to a certain extent it's a question of the recognition of games as a potential career. Certainly, I think, there are parents that would pressure their children if they said, “Yeah, Mom, I want to go to university to learn how to make games.” I certainly hear that from people, where they have to struggle against social pressure to not go into a frivolous industry like the game industry, because people don't fully understand the weight and economic size of the industry.
