Making money isn’t capitalism. A market economy isn’t capitalism. You can look up the textbook definition, but to me capitalism means organizing absolutely everything around the pursuit of profit for the ownership class. Indie developers by and large aren’t in it for the money; that would make no sense, because they could make better money doing something else.

Yeah. It seems to me while there’s a lot of ways to take “capitalism”, the moment you point out that people are taking paycuts to do gamedev there’s no way capitalism applies to their motivations anymore.
