Can I Sell My Game Ideas?


No.


Everyone has ideas, and regardless of their actual merit, everyone thinks their ideas are just as good or better than anyone else's.

This means that even if you are capable of providing truly outstanding ideas, no one is going to pay attention to them.

On top of that, ideas are free. Anyone can come up with ideas all day long. However, implementing those ideas costs millions of dollars and can take years. So if you weigh the "costs nothing to produce idea" vs. the "costs millions of dollars and years of effort to produce software" you will quickly come to the conclusion that publishers who spend those millions of dollars don't care about ideas nearly as much as they care about implementation.

If a group has fairly decent (but not close to outstanding) ideas, and can develop and deliver a solid product, they are worth infinitely more than a group that can create OUTSTANDING ideas, but cannot develop a product.

As a final note: Everyone would rather be working on their own dream than someone else's. If any choice comes down to "we make our own stuff" or "we make someone else's stuff", and the someone else's stuff does not happen to be the latest hit movie or a branded game like Tiny Toons or a fantastic new Spinal Tap: The Game or something, the "we make our own stuff" wins.

我可以出卖我的游戏点子吗？
不。
每个人都有自己的主意，而不计较这些主意是否拥有实际的价值，每个人总认为他们的主意和其他人的一样优秀或者更好。
这种情况意味着即使你有能力提供真正杰出水平的主意，但没有人会注意它们。
另外，主意是免费的。任何人都会整天地提出主意。但是，实现那些注意却需要花费数百万的金钱和若干年的时间。所以如果你掂量一下这两种情况：“不花费任何代价生产主意“和“花费数百万的金钱和数年的努力去生产软件“。你会很快得出这样的结论：出版商不在乎这些主意，却花费大量的金钱去实现它们。
如果一个团队拥有相当好（还没有到特别突出的水平）的主意，并且将它变成了一个实际的产品，他们的价值是那些可以产生非常优秀的主意，但没有将它变成产品的团队所不能比拟的。
总结一下：每个人都更愿意完成自己的梦想，而不是别人的。如果每一种选择都归结为“我们给自己生产原材料“或“我们给别人生产原材料“，并且为别人生产的原材料没有有幸成为最新潮的震撼电影或一个给人留下深刻印象的游戏，例如Tiny Toons或独特的新Spinal Tap乐队。
这个游戏或者与之类似的东西，即“我们给自己生产原材料“将取得成功。
