I think this happens when founders make a tonne of money. Small wins don't whet their appetite anymore and the discussions they are having, with friends, investors, peers and agencies, are all about their existing global success and taking it even further--after all no business with that kind of momentum feels "we're big and this is as big we're gonna be". When in reality, even the best of games in this genre need only a small core of maybe just 3-5 strong and highly motivated game developers. To their credit, they juiced their one-hit-wonder as much as any company ever could.
