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.

1) create overpromising marketing campaign/kickstarter for a MMO

2) slap together some random assets

3) ???

4) receive VC

5) profit..

Isn't this just the game version of (1) start a new fashion "label", (2) buy Facebook ads, (3) drop ship from China when / if you get actual oorders?
