I have no idea why anyone would defend this, yet I've already seen people try. I expect another reversal by Microsoft. I know they're trying very hard to please publishers but a publisher is nothing without developers. They'll have to allow self-publishing eventually and on that day I expect a lot of the same people defending their current policy to tell us how great it is that they're changing. |
I don't need every single indie game ever to be on the XBOX One. Like someone said earlier, this whole idea that somehow XBLA has a shortage of great indie games is ridiculous to begin with. There are plenty of great indie games there and have been for years. I don't ever even really remember anyone talking about smaller games on PS3 until Flower/Journey (which Sony published) so Microsoft has been doing something right. This quite simply boils down to quantity vs quality.
Also, anyone who has seen Indie Game; The Movie knows this guy is insane. I literally thought the twist at the end of the movie was going to be him killing himself and Fez never actually coming out. The game is also not that great.
