    There are hundreds of awesome games available. If all you’re doing is buying the few AAA bug ridden and money grabbing games that come out each year you’re doing yourself a huge disservice.

        Nice. I’ve heard good things about that one. I’ll probably pick it up someday.

        But yeah. Indie is where it’s at.

          Sometimes, I guess. What percentage of them ever get beyond years of early access limbo and actually end up releasing as finished games? What percentage of those actually end up either being any better than typical AAA games or offer a significant amount of play time?

          Yeah, the good indie games are good, but indie games are no more likely to be especially good, or ever get finished at all, than AAA games are.

            You’re right. Don’t play any indie games because not all of them are good. 👍.

            What was the point of your comment?

              My point is that it’s stupid as fuck to rightly shit on part of the industry that mostly just churns out trash while verbally jerking off over another part that’s only marginally better, if it’s actually any better at all.
