This is a hot take and just untrue. We have tons of indies that sells millions of copies, just because they are low budget doesn't mean they can't be appreciated by many people. It takes two sold 7 million copies, this is blockbuster level of sales What about Among us? Minecraft? There are so many successful indie games, why can't be they be nominated for AOTY? Also, there is no need to feel alienated or uncultured just because you don't see the beauty in a specific piece of art form, as appreciating art is subjective and sometimes we need to be touched by some sensibilities that for a couple of reasons we are unaware of. Indeed if anyone feel dumb just because they disagree with critics choice then, perhaps, they're dumb indeed, just not for the reason they think they are. |
I dint say a game needs to sell a lot. We definetly have garbage like. Cod and fifa selling tons and we can all agree they are not considered contenders in the hall of fame. I A said a game its touted as excellent or something by a small group but the larger group does not feel the same.
Never said i feel dumb. I said reviewers and even people here feel like if people dont see their gem then its because your less. Theese smaller games tend to be apreciated by a niche most of the time. And if your not into that niche to begin with you will never apreciate that game.
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
