Depends how you look at it.
Consider this: MS allowed Bungie to create the whole Arbiter side of Halo 2 in the first place.
That was a risk but it happened and it tended to have rather split reactions.
Funnily enough, Halo 2 was considerably more rushed than Halo 3, a game Bungie polished considerably more.
Did MS put pressure on Bungie to drop the split campaign in H3? Possibly, but its always sounded like something Bungie themselves set out to do with wanting to bring H3 a little more in line with the first game, and extends to music too.
There was also Metal Gear Solid 2. That game took a massive risk in ousting Solid Snake for the vast majority of the game and introducing a new character. That was purely artistic too, and Konami let Kojima do it.
There was a lot of backlash too, so you would think Solid Snake would be back in MGS3.
Actually, no, he wasn't. In fact, MGS3 was a prequel that took place before Solid Snake was even born and while the main character of a young Big Boss looked and sounded like the Solid Snake we knew, he had a very different character and outlook.
It took 10 years, over 4 games, for Solid Snake to return to the staring role in the main series.
Does this mean that money is less important?
No, not really, but perhaps it shows that some publishers know that they don't have to sacrifice artistic interrogatory to bring in the big money anyway.
If a game is good enough, the brand and developer established enough, that alone is enough to help sell a game.
