| forest-spirit said: It doesn't make sense to me how you can hate or love indie games. Indie games isn't exactly a genre, it's just games made by independant developers. And there are a bajillion of them out there. And I don't like how "indie" have turned into such a buzz word. It's not exactly a feat to become an indie developer. Get RPG Maker and make something with it and you're indie. Pretty much. There's way too much focus on the word indie, almost to the extent that the actual games have become low priority. |
Best post in the thread so far and I'm surprised people have taken so long to say it (even I completely missed this point).
Indie isn't a genre. It's a mis-mash of... every genre, really. There are indie games that can look as good as a lower-budget retail game and there are indie games that at literally ported flash titles. To say you hate all of them (or even nearly all of them) is covering far too wide a scope.
