You vastly do not understand how it works.

1. They have to hire sag actors because if they dont they can't hire them for any other games the company makes. that makes the actors thousands of dollars per hour more.

2. Programmers for games can be paid 200k salaries for doing the same work building AI death machines with palmer lucky, but they chose to make kids happy, should they make no money if they make that choice?

3. Marketing alone costs more money than you can possibly imagine, dwarfing both of these other two.

It's not insulting to sell a game for 40$, something that (you should keep for your whole life so you can play it for free when you're 40 years old).
