but not only that, but also these shitty familycore-tier gameplay and plot like:
>"hahah YO in THIS GAME , you play as a FROG who has to JUMP around a kitchen to COOK!!!"
OR
>"In this game, you are a suicidal troonsbian who descends into the Umbral Grail. perhaps xhe will meet friends...or true love?!"

Indie games are made in a vacuum where they advertise to other indie devs, as such they all bastardise their ideas and don't actually make anything a market wants.
They'll post some shitty clip of their game and use a bunch of tags such as #madeinENGINE #indiedev #solodev and so on which only other indie devs use. They'll get a bunch of views, some comments and likes and assume that it's a good idea. Completely oblivious to the fact that these other indie devs won't buy their game, they're just being nice and encouraging.

Indie devs are a self bastardising community that larps as the innovators and devs of the popular indie games meanwhile neither of these things come from them.

So why don't you be part of the solution instead of complaining about it? Oh wait, I know, because the complaining is the point.

What the fuck are you going on about
Indies are incredibly diverse.
-Devil daggers
-Rain world
-Baba is you
-Slime rancher
-Binding of Issac
Are we using the same definition of indie?

That's not even remotely true, so I'm just going to assume that you're just another fag adopting an uneducated opinion that someone else told you to have.

Sounds like indies have enough variety, sure there's always room from improvement but compared with themselves a decade ago or AAA seems great honestly

>>736374162
for me the real issue with indie games is none of them provides me with a greater experience. ive yet to find one that is more than entertainment. im sure there might be stories out there that give me a bit more, but i want the story and the rest of the experience to align into something masterful

while i dont doubt either being good at what they do, they seem to be more or less just clones of something else and not actually building off in their own direction in a meaningful way. im not looking for something original for the sake of originality but something that isnt just more of the same. thats the problem. i want to feel something, not just play more games, there is an infinite supply of things to play to recharge my entertainment needs
>>
current mmo wow clone bs revival is not inherently bad
rpgs looking towards wurm is good
project grimlock was ok
im about to play monsters and memories which may be dogshit
