For workers, yes, and that is quite expected. A company is profitable for as long as it makes games that go viral. And interest in those games fades in time, so it’s quite expected. As indie tho i know plenty of success stories out there to think otherwise.

Survivor bias. For every success there are many hundreds or thousands of failures, not all of which are necessarily of poor quality.
