I am a composer and a client who was working on a small indie game invited me to a Skype
conference to introduce me to the game devs and discuss my involvement as the
soundtrack composer. I normally work with my virtual orchestras,
and I was hired based on this.

Client: Everyone say hello!

Everyone greeted me very friendly and swiftly got back to discussing
something about the game.

Me: So could you describe what you want in the score
for your game?

Game Dev 1: Ah yes, we need some 8-bit or 16-bit
music or whatever it is called!

Game Dev 2: No we want something epic, like in the
movies!

Game Dev 3: Honestly, I think I should just make the
music. It shouldn’t be too hard.

That was the day I learned to stop working with hobby
game developers.
