Well, to me "indies" don't have to be small or low budget. Just... Independent? 

Although I agree that there ones right here are really something about your average indie game... 

Maybe thats just me, I think Indie = cheap 2D spirit sidescroller type games.
Usually horribly hard platformers, so your in a cycle of repreating tries to get through levels.
That way they dont have to make as many levels.

It is true that there are many indie games that match that definition. However, not all of them are like that. You have games like Pillars of Eternity, No Man's Sky, The Witness, Divinity: Original Sin, Superhot, The Stantley Parable, Little Nightmares, INSIDE or What Remains of Edith Finch to name a few.  

Even if we are talking about 2D Sprite sidescroller, you have some of the best in that category in the indie landscape like Shovel Knight, Cuphead, Hollow Knight, Katana Zero...
