How Do You Define "Indie"?

[Baryonyx]

Indipendent studios, and the title got nothing to do with the result of the game.
The game might be big, or it might be small. 

No man's sky.

DayZ 

etc etc.

It all depends on the skillz of the team on how the game are going to end up.

most indipendent studios rarely takes on huge project that might take years due for being to few developers.

But some do, but indipendent is basically just indipendent, and indie games means it's a game created by a indipendent studio.

The Quality of a game is basically described as Low, Mid-tier and AAA when it comes to budget.

and indies are just a genre, not defined by it's quality
