Well it didn't take long for indie games to officially become slop We need a new game industry independent of the current indie industry

I'm glad I'm not retarded like you are.
Still not touching your AAA garbage shlomo try again
>>732632170There’s also old school survival horror game knockoffs. Some, like Alisa (an RE1 clone) have actually been pretty good. These are the only types of indie games I’ll actually buy. There’s apparently a few Parasite Eve clones that I still need to look into.

>metroidvania>souls-likeAka ludo kino and gaming in its purest form. /v/ complains about shallow gameplay slop from AAA developers but when indie studios deliver massive amounts of challenging games catering to many different tastes you guys aren't happy either.What do you guys want?
You forgot slav/nordic jank
There are two types of Indie games.1) An attempt to have a stupid character someone just made up steal a character slot in Smash2) Shantae
>>732632852Zoomer coded post
>>732632852This. It’s literally the culmination of decades of action adventure game design refinement. They’re the perfect formulas.
>>732632892That game was so good. Slav/nordjank is the peak of gaming.
>>732633021Formulas are anti kino you underage retard

>>732633754clearly your game was shit since i follow every ymmersive sim youtuber on the planet and buy every game that looks interesting
An indie game thread, eh? Let me look through my screenshots folder and see what the last indie game I played was....looks like it was onirism.
>>732633829VOTV isn't on Steam last I checked
>>732633889>looks like a WEG>isn't a WEGI am confused and angry, and horny.
>>732632170every now and then you'll find some niche rare artistic experience/walking simulator games that make you feel emotions you didn't think were possiblethese games alone make the indie slop industry absolutely worth its problemsthis game is my most memorable example of this categoryhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/1665500/Hypnagogia__Boundless_Dreams/valve makes it difficult to find unique games on steam, but they're out there if you look hard enoughhint: you can search on steam with nothing in the search bar, just click the icon, or click on the search bar, ensure it's empty, and then press enter, and browse the entire steam libraryfrom there, you can use tags and price filters to find rare games that might appeal to youby default steam basically showers you in games that are making a lot of money, but that's not always what people want
>>732633890>i let e-celebs form my opinionsGrim.
>>732632297can't wait for that fad to die
Thinly veiled shill thread. Fuck of and buy an ad nobody is gonna play your dogshit game.
>>732634171thats not what i said and youre crying over a fake scenario you created in your headif you know a better way to find new imsims im all ears
>>732634154looks inspired by LSD (the ps1 game), nice
>>732632297Farm Sims and visual novels and puzzles and autism simulators
>>732634247it was, this is the second game in the series made by the developer, the first one is available on itch for free, and was part of the LSD game jamhttps://sodaraptor.itch.io/hypnagogiaboth games are excellent
So what? If the game has some appeal people will play it regardless of how "common" it happens to be. You are also posting this in the same board that happens to parade all sorts of gachas games. And besides, if there was any sort of unique game, indie or otherwise, its not like /v/ would play it cause they are just as much of normalfags as any other social media site and will only play shit that their more popular betters shill to them.
>>732634242Well then post every indie sim you boughted then.
The 3rd category was never that popular to begin with even during the height of it's supposed reign. This is just gacha/cod/bf fags having a fit that someone told them they had shit tastes.
>>732633889You said 10 games this is one game that's not even out and it looks like an asset flip
>>732632852>challenginglol
>>732632170how should we name the new one anon
>>732634389NIKOLAYCUT IT OUT!!!!!
>>732634883Native American games Or indigenous games
>>732632170And this?
>>732634875Ok tough guy, name a game that you consider to be difficult.
>>732634947Weird deflection but okay.
>>732635000underrail
>>732634967>Native American games>Only gacha and e-gambling
>>732632170What do you want? To be surprised with something new you’ve never played before and never knew you wanted? It happens but it’s always been rare.
>>732634971shitty rpg maker game with good art?
>>732632170Good indie games come out all the time open your fucking eyes, jaded retard
>>732632170They've been shit since they stopped being freeware
>>732635242>most games on the pic came out before 2019, before valve fucked up the promotion algorithm for indie games

>>732635362>>732635404I just don't play that many games but there are still new ones that are goodthing is they are easy to miss/forget about
>>732632170>open world survival craftAre you stuck in 2020? In the year 2026 vampire survivors clones should take that position.
>>732632427What game is that?
>>732632427>only play indies that look fun and interesting>none of them doWoooooow
>>732635064>number autism gameyawn
>>732634220I will play your dogshit indie game.
>>732635643concession accepted
>>732632170Sounds like a (You) issue
>>732632836No. I won't.
>>732632170The number of good indie games released every year is about the same. The other 99% is just people trying to leech off the culture for a quick buck.
>>732632170my game is a jayarrpergee but without the J and it was mainly an excuse to make badly drawn titties and a soundtrack
>>732632170Well, what else should they make then?
>>732632170Indie games have gone the way of the FGC after cashing in on e-sports.

>>732636679>retarded subhumanite is so low IQ he misses the pointI'm the first person you quoted.
I only play obscure indie+ titles.
>>732632170Pipistrello is the best indie I played this year
I like puzzle games, point & clicks, metroidvanias, and platformers. There are more games on my wishlist than there are atoms in the universe.

>>732637461>anon is the slop official
>>732634781>gacha/cod/bg fags having a fitNah I think this one is OP looking for recommendations since the best way to get /v/ to talk about something is to give them a subject to contradict. If he asks directly, his thread dies. If he says indies are shit and all belong in a certain category (which he dislikes), he gets a thread full of suggestions that aren't in his hated category.
>>732637398Oh hey, yet another low IQ subhumanite who can't read. I really hope they expunge your subhuman kind soon.
>>732637398>Labyrinth of the Demon KingThis game was garbage
>>732636608Thanks.
>>732632170Stardew Valley doesn't fit any of those criteria
>when you only play shitty gacha games and fortnite and maybe played Undertale once, and presume you anything about indie gamesWhy are they like this?
>>732632170indies are the only games worth playing today
>>732632892got tricked into playing this garbage walking simulator, dropped halfway through, never playing indie shit ever again
No matter which genre you're a fan of, there's someone making one independently.there are huge scenes for platformers, shmups, adventure games, CRPGs...The problem with you guy's is you're retarded and can't use the search function. And you probably aren't in any communities apart from /v/ and Asmongold.
>>732638878>No matter which genre you're a fan of, there's someone making one independently.RTS?
>>732632170Not a problem in project Nortubel
>>732638919D.O.R.FFrom Glory to GooLine War
>>732632170Auto shooters where you just walk around while your character shoot stuff
>>732638383Stardew is a Metroidvania. You need to do things to unlock doors to progress.
>>732638919search it. almost certainly.
>>732638878The games still need to be good, not just exist.

>>732639585This. How the fuck is it Earthbound??
>>732639447And Celeste is Super Meat Boy
>>732639447A few of them are Doom. Like Dusk and Prodeus.
>>732635064Yikes

>>732639735Super Meat Boy is a Cave Story.

>>732638820>walking simyou probably got lost and then got frustrated its okay to be filtered anon
>>732640047...fair
When did the industrycuck mindset migrate over from /co/?
>>732632892what is thisImma buy it
>>732632170I don’t want “independent games”. I want big studios that are run by chuds like me. I want to take over and run the establishment not abolish it.
>>732639286They could have just made dlc and I would've paid for it. I'm not buying this shit.
>>732632170You know who is to blame
>>732632170The niche games exist but people like you (normalfags) aren't meant to find them.You get your recommendations from rankings lists and streamers and trying something new would be like pulling nails for you.
>>732640281speak for yourself. Most 80's and 90's developers were like ten guys in a room. I want to go back to that, not Call of Duty 4.

>>732640575Thanks. Added to my wishlist.
>>732640281>I don't want to do the work myself I just want to take over the work of othersHow did the quote go? Evil cannot create anything new
>>732640329Yeah its disappointing as fuck
>>732632170Ranking from best to worst>Open World Survival CraftThe most neutral and mundane. Typically made by thirdworlders who think they will be the next Notch. At worst get incessantly shilled before fading into obscurity like Palworld.>Metroidvania Souls-like Tags that are nebulous in meaning and typically don't create consistent games. A lot look pretty trans but can be safely avoided. Nearly always a disappointment. But there are some that are visually nice like Hollow Knight and Ender Lilies. >It's a Metaphor For Faggotry The absolute worst vile scourge of gaming. Always made by weak-willed con artist fatties/skellies. The worst part is the fanbase though. These things attract fanbases that seem allergic to enjoying entertainment. They always have to make something into something it is not and play pretend. Many of these games may not even be about the shit they claim, they just intoorpreted it as such. Games like Undertale and Omori are only going leave you feeling disappointed and raped. Who knows what the original intent of these kind of games was.
And somehow AAA games don't hold a candle to the top 100 indie games.
>>732632170Gaming went to shit with the death of AA
>>732632170That's not even true.Good b8 though.
>>732641875AA is still the best out there, you fuckers just don't buy them.
>>732632170Name 5 games you want to see indie devs make and name the last 20 games you played.
>>732641998I'm still waiting PATIENTLY for someone to make a good game that fills in the gap that AC: Brotherhood multiplayer left.
>>732632170Wrong.>Katana Zero>Loco Motive>Grooveyard>Balatro>Intravenous 2>BIRDCAGE>Last Command>Awaria>House Of NecrosisThat's at least 10 games that don't fit your retarded narrow-minded view of what indie games are.

>>732632170>everything fits into these vague categories so they're all the same!
