I love video games, but I told my cousin not to go into that field because of how terribly game developers are treated/paid, and that if your plan is to make an indie hit like balatro or Minecraft, you probably would have better luck playing the lottery. But I'm not really in that industry, I've just read a lot of articles. If anyone is actually in that line of work, would you say my warning was accurate?

I work in the industry. You're pretty much right. I wouldn't recommend people to get into the field unless you're SUPER into making games and are okay with working way harder than others. That said, other tech jobs are also suffering right now, layoffs are way more common than they used to be throughout the entire field feels very competitive.
