I believe a good heart human being would feel really sad while reading this topic, and I'm sure this is the case for most here, this is a good community with good people and good intentions.
I would add a word here "gamification", I see this is a gamification of life. These streamers and others explore the inner emptiness and lack of self-steem of millions of people. Some (if not most) of the people who buy those products/services are really addicted to it, and addiction is a really big problem in any context.
From facebook to youtube to game skins, digital hyperstimulation is killing humans like war. I don't think the problem is that we live in an all connected digital age, that's a bless, the shared knowledge we have today is amazing, available to millions, but what we do with it? Most of us NOTHING.
One of the most common examples I see is the love thing. Finding someone, caring for someone, surprising your loved one, planning things etc, it all takes time and commitment. Then some people decide well why pursue all that if I can open this youtube video and have my "virtual girlfriend" talk sweet and tell me I'm the most loved human on Earth (as long as I watch the advertisement or pay the monthly US$ on onlyfans or whatever). Really sad. What will be of the next generation? Children of these (if any)?
About selling 3D (for context I'm an amateur coming from a non-related field of engineering), I believe one should pursue what's on your heart, no matter what, period. Because the time will come for ALL of us, and if there is one thing I don't wanna regret is that. Sure it takes courage and commitment, but it's the only way to become the best version of yourself. The part of making it viable is surely necessary, and it's your duty to make it viable, because YOU WANT IT FOR GOD'S SAKE! Worth mention Fight Club's Raymond scene: youtube.com/watch?v=JdwyAcJ8j2U
So what did you wanted to be?
Life is hard, and will be hard no matter which way you choose. I've worked many years in three different companies for multiple bosses, for money spent on futile things, feeling burned out. Since last year I'm finding my healing through digital art. Since I was a kid I've dreamed of doing something related to art, but always thought "I'm not good enough", "that's not for me". That's a lie, don't do that!
