It'll be popular becauase liking indy games is a new thing now. Like hating iPhones/Android, hating Call of Duty, and hating any musician who wins a Grammy.


I feel that some indie games are getting a free pass to good review score. Of course, we can say the same for the most hyped AAA games. With PS+ I started trying more indie titles and in the end things are similar to AAA games: few are really great, some are good, some are bad. I really enjoyed Guacamelee and Hotline Miami. Sine mora and Lone Survivor were decent while Thomas Was Alone simply looked a completely overrated and pretentious game (that pales compared to Ibb and Obb). These kind of games have less content, but usually are way cheaper so things pay off. I'm currently very satisfied with getting 1 or 2 AAA games and some indies on PS3/PSV.

PS4 lack of AAA is probably normal for a launch console. I got my Vita close to launch and things simply sucked. Less than a year latter and I already had more interesting titles avaiable that I could buy. PS4 was hurt by delays on Driveclub and Batman too. Anyway, it will probably take until Q3-Q4 2015 to have a good library avaiable, but that's what buying consoles at launch usually do: you get it first, but you will suffer with the early issues. That's probably why launch titles always have high sales and its sequels usually fall hard (Motorstorm, Resistance) when they have to deal with increased competition.
