Probably why Lethal Company, a game made by one person with little experience, is the 9th highest selling game on Steam.
I hope this happens more often and AAA studios realize they can also make small experimental games with small budgets and few staff. They don't need to spend 10 years doing nothing but work on their next monolithic title. Give some passionate staffers a chance with their unique idea and release smaller games along the way.
Why would we want anything from jobbers? People who can do this don't need those publishers.
It is disingenuous to say that the lethal company dev (zeekers) has little experience. He already has like 5 games on steam and some of them got very popular.
