Indie developers, being smaller than big companies, benefit greatly from KickStarter, especially if they've never made a game before, since they don't exactly have all the funds available in the world.

Big companies should not have to rely on KickStarter, mainly because they wouldn't make a huge profit from it, and would be somewhat unprofessional looking if a big company had to rely on KickStarter to make sure a game is being developed.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
