Here is a simplified cost accounting for an average game project.
As to see, also with a publisher who has the biggest part of the development costs, an independent development studio must wait until enough copies are sold before they have gotten something from the profits.
So a hardcore simulation must be sold over 100.000 copies before the devs get something from the cake, easier to receive with a popular action shooter for a wider range of customers
