Theoretical vs practical Memes

When your professor explains game theory with complex mathematical notation, but all you wanted was to make the next Fortnite killer. That's literally just a chicken to you. The gap between theoretical game theory (with its Nash equilibriums and utility functions) and actually making fun games is wider than the chasm between promised deadlines and actual ship dates. The bearded professor proudly displays his chicken as if it's the Rosetta Stone of gaming while you're just wondering if your character's jump animation looks natural enough.
