Burek said: Wow, half a million sold. I am shocked, especially with so many sold on PS4, paired with a sub-70 score. I though low metacritic scores are an indie-poison, particularly for a gane that doesn't even look that interesting, a one-joke pony stretched over several hours. Good for them, though, glad they managed to earn some money for their effort. |
You forget that a lot of indie hits are one-joke-ponies. That's why they sell. The better the joke, the better they sell. People don't expect much more of indie games than one aspect that keeps them entertained for a while.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
