Sure and the majority of indie developers lose money on their games. However sometimes indie studios produce amazing games and we don't want to prevent that from happening or we'd miss out on games that are some of my all time favorites like FTL and Minecraft (not to mention dozens of others.)
> Creating quality games requires a large amount of cash reserves to pay for a creative team, including programmers; independents usually do not have that luxury.
Only for certain types of games. Indie games don't have the funding to produce massive amounts of assets, but they have the freedom to take risks that larger studios can't. Without that innovation, we'd see even more stagnation in the AAA game market.
