Sure it won't be a blickbuster...but the devs made the game they wanted to make, and they hopefully get a little money back. This happens in every industry. There are metal bands that smoke the "commercial" metal bands in jsut about every category...but because their sound isn't the currently popular one, they will never achieve the success of their inferior peers. I'm looking at your Linkin Park... |
But you know, you can record a music album for $5000. You can't make a high quality game for that type of money. Games that are really top notch in graphics, design, sound and voice acting are expensive to make. You could make some small game like Braid on the cheap, but it'd be a sad say in my mind when shooters were the only genre that get a "big" game with a real deal budget. Or the only non shooters with a budget all have a number higher than 5 behind their name.
