By now I think everyone is aware to a degree that the cost of developing games has rised to ridiculous amounts, and game developers complain about it all the time and no one is doing something about it.
I want to get your opinion on a solution I thought up, I propose that big companies should start making small games paralel to the giant budget ones. Games that cost way less and avoid trying to being the next call of duty, we have seen how successful indie titles can be and those games are generally not that big, so if the triple A industry makes games similar to what the indies have been doing they would get small continious profits that can help fund the larger games.
So what do you think? is it viable?
