Ask HN: Game developers is finding a job more difficult than other CS positions?

My cousin is looking at career paths and likes the Human-Centered Computing option at University [https://cse.umn.edu/cs/track-electives]. I hear that game development is ultra competitive and difficult to to find a steady job. I'm a systems tech so I don't really know. Now that I'm thinking about it, finding a job might harder but aren't alot of jobs difficult to get out of college? Any suggestions or insight I can relay?
