these actually sold a lot of copies so did Myst was the first was one of the first ever CD Rom game, Tomb Raider pioneer in the medium, both laying the foundations for and popularising action-adventure and platforming games and also credited the series for bringing video gaming out into the cultural mainstream, most of these are technical, cultural and other social achievements rather than just because. The collection will grow each year.
One of these days a game movie will break the mould, just as superhero movies have done, AC had promise, the cinematography and visuals were well done IMO, everything else seemed to lack, not a bad movie, yet still not a good one, but nicely done. to much of that eagle, we get it, use it once or twice and that it.
I work in media and yes that is an average, but a lot of these outside positions are contract based, so yes you might make 100 k a year one year and 5000 the next, the entertainment industry are brutal, and unless your well known, forget making a living. Those that are lucky do get salary jobs. It also depends on where you live.
One of this days someone will get it right, how many times were superhero films made before they started to actually be good. IMO, the key aspects of the game need to be there to make it great, not emulate. I always separate a game and it movie version, took awhile, but when u don't consider it a "game" movie and just a movie, some have been entertaining. Assassins creed was decent, watchable, it just like watching a movie based on a book, I never read the The Da Vinci Code the movie, my mom did, so our experience was different.
I think a lot of millennial's are just trollin the world when they do these things, most people in media are unpaid interns. Heck as an unpaid media intern my self I be like BAM Call of Duty shot
Video Game Movies should be handled by video game writes, it is not a far stretch, from game to film story wise nowadays, have Ubisoft, or any other studio write the story the pas it on and be like "no touchy script"
