Candy Crush isn't even top 5 in revenue [0]. Genshin isn't top 10. How can you look at money like that and ever think of going back to the flat fee price model as an executive?
That said, I've wondered why game companies haven't transitioned back to a socialized model where high profit games are used to subsidize the high-intellect games. I'm talking something like 2014 Blizzard where Hearthstone dwarfed the money every other IP was making but which still attracted a higher-end audience with SC2 and WoW.
