Yeah, I just joined as a reddit refugee because lemmy.world looked appealing. Had no idea it would effectively become the "defacto" instance of lemmy. Would be nice if communities spread out more.
I think a fairer comparison in entertainment would be sport. On paper it doesn't produce anything to better humanity, there's a ridiculous amount of fuel used by teams and fans to travel especially when it comes to something like a World Cup because it's on a global scale.
In reality, the world absolutely needs it because that's what people use to entertain themselves. People can't be mindless drones fucking about; they won't just read books all the time or go camping every day. There's something primal that just comes out when it comes to sport and most people can't live without it.
I believe that still compels you to reveal your source code if you modify Godot itself and release games with that, don't quote me on that though. There's a chance studios want to create a custom implementation for in-house use.
