There's a lot of low-quality Unity games on Steam, largely because they automated the new game system so that all it takes to publish a game is paying $100. There are some legitimate game designers putting in effort, but some 'publishers' have hundreds of these games and are often just copies of each other but with different assets.

For anyone doubting how simple this is, you can buy entirely pre-made games and template games in the Unity Asset Store for anywhere from $25-$500 depending on how polished the asset is.
...and then, something like this [0] happens:
1) create overpromising marketing campaign/kickstarter for a MMO
2) slap together some random assets
3) ???
4) receive VC
5) profit..
