Why I'm not an electronic game designer

Why would I want to design electronic games? I'm better off as is.

• The "AAA list" electronic games are really designed by committee. When I design a game, it is almost all MINE. (The rest is playtesters and publisher.)
• For most of the age of video games, you had to work full time in the industry, yet the pay was and is poor. I'd rather help young people as a teacher, get paid at least as well, and have lots of time to design games.
• The working hours are bad. "Crunch time" (unpaid overtime) is common, though designers are not involved in that quite as much as programmers and artists.
• Fighting with the electronics obscures the purity of design. You worry about what the computer can do instead of what the players can do.
