Why "soloproducers" struggle with depletion
Being a soloproducer means being an entrepreneur who runs everything himself. This type of business model has countless advantages and, thanks to the web, it is now more feasible than ever for more people.
The idea of running an entire empire single-handedly would have seemed an impossible pipe dream just a few years ago. Today, however, this is what more and more people are living as their reality. The Internet is such a powerful force multiplier that it allows many people to truly become "digital polymaths". Video game development is a perfect example. Once upon a time, in the days of the ZX Spectrum and other computers, a single developer could create a game in his basement and release it to the world with great success. But then computers developed further and computer game graphics became photorealistic. Today, the budget for a "AAA" title is gigantic, and projects require thousands of people working tirelessly for years.
For many years, it was impossible for a single developer to compete with the big game studios. But then things changed.
