I agree with this. I find myself regularly missing the middle of the road games with lower development costs because those are the games that often dares to try new things.
Last one I remember like that was Ubisoft's "Grow Home" which was utterly charming and had me hooked from beginning to end. Didn't need to be big. Didn't need amazing graphics. Just needed a little idea that (pardon the pun) grew to become a really engaging game.
More games like that please! Maybe the development costs didn't have to balloon that much.
