Well said.

You missed World of Goo, Flower, the Unfinished Swan, and Terraria, btw


No love for Lone Survivor? :(

And Hotline: Miami! :D

 

I don't think anyone can deny there's many, many great games coming from indies, but they can't all be in one pot. Good indie games should be singled out. The rest, unless they're using egregious in-app purchases or exploiting in other ways, deserve to have a way of sustaining themselves, but shouldn't expect equal treatment until they've proven themselves. There's just not enough room for all indie developers, and the customer paying good money for a premium console and online service should not be misled to purchase a shit game, otherwise the whole industry is at risk.

I love how both of their last names ends on something to eat/drink.

The third last name in the article is Blow. Why stop at eat/drink? 


Fair enough. We'll do the Blowfish combo. Poisonous Food/Poisonous drink.

Don't know if I spelled poisonous correctly.

So you condone journalism breaking deontological ethics just for the sake of controversy?

When it's this funny and ridiculous, yes. I'm perfectly fine with it.

Also, it trended on Twitter quite quickly. Pretty funny.

My favorite indie titles include


-Cave Story+


Were there any differences between Cave Story and Cave Story + except for prettier graphics?

Ahh he'll be back. $$$$ always brings back these types of people.


Wich $$$ ?

Fez only sold 100 000 copies before steam sales and took five years to make.

He didn't get that much money.

The one he made from all the sales on XBL and Steam combined.

So how many copies does it take to make money on a "Indie" game?

Wat? 5 years to make this?

Whats with indies these days, first a game that takes 5GB and now one that takes 5 years to make. Damn lol.

Edit: So he quit game development? Oh well.

Fez was dev chaos. He remade the whole graphics 3 times, and probable has obsessive compulsive disorder to a low level and can't distinguish what's important from what is not.

Plus he had different associates during the 5 years, and it didn't go well. All I can say is that he is not a bad guy, but sometimes he can be a real asshole and i wouldn't spend 12 hours a day in a office with him.

A indie game can take 5 years to make, but they should avoid this at all cost. Too big projects kill indies every day.



Phil Fish is an idiot. That is all.



Nintendo and PC gamer

Also, team Beer FTW!
