To expand on this: there's a difference between being interested in something, and being motivated or driven to become something. I'm kinda meh on all sorts of software engineering fields like networking and systems programming, but I was hella motivated to get into the software industry so I could get a job and become independent. Likewise, I find game dev and design interesting to read and learn about, but I don't really have any motivation or drive to dive headlong into the game dev and design industry like I did software dev. They aren't mutually inclusive.
