I think the issue for Mighty No. 9 and Bloodstained is the heads of development, Igarashi and Inafune come from backgrounds that were backed by big corporations with a great deal of money, resources, and man power. They lost that when they left Konami and Capcom respectively and they started their own company. Yes, Igarashi was a huge part of Castlevania, Inafune was a huge part of Mega Man, but remember, they are only parts to a whole. There were tons of other amazing programmers and artists working beside them because Konami could hire them, because they had the money, see where this is going?
4 million dollars is a lot, but to make a AAA style game on that is near impossible with a small team, without delaying it.
