This. We don't need bloated budgets for cutting-edge graphics, etc.

Stop spending so much money on making the game then.
Pretty much this. I mean do they really need to spend 40-60+ million on ads for their games? It seems to me most people base their game purchases off of word of mouth and gameplay footage. At least that's how it works for me and my friends. I mean seriously slap a few videos together showing actual gameplay with a quick synopsis of what the story or theme is and let the videogame focused Youtubers promote your game for you.
They do realize that gamers don't care about fancy CGI footage that in no way shows what the actual game looks like right? They might of in the past but sorry the 90s are over.
Also stop with the pointless promotional events with the D list celebrities talking about games they don't care about that gamers know are just there for a quick paycheck . I mean is spending 20,000 to get Jack Black or Ice T really convincing anyone to buy your game? You not Hollywood game industry so quit acting like you are.
You need to advertise no matter what, but the bigger problem is likely the development budget.

Who are you guys talking to exactly?
Themselves. I know when I want to dissect the insider realities of making videogames I turn to random people on forums that have 0 connection to the industry other than as consumers or possibly low-level retailers.
