Why I don't play indie games

[deleted fren]

I don't pay indie games. Why? Because they're completely unoriginal and boring. Almost every indie game just rips off another older game and combines it something else. Why would I play some shitty pixel art ripoff of a game with a story about transgenders killing themselves when I could play the superior original?


It's a shame the only people who make indie games are faggots who are too retarded to come up with their own mechanics or ideas.

Nowadays I only play 2000s, 2010s Japanese games. I have no interest in playing shitty indie games or triple A trash

I like indie games that pay homage to old classics. I'm a very nostalgic gamer in that sense.

It is indeed a shame. The big developers got scared of taking risks and trying out new things and the indies are probably greedy for success and profit, this is why they copy ideas. Some indie developers are just too ambitious, they do projects that exceed their programming skills and their time constraints.

There used to be good indie games and flash games made by fans. These were all about trying new things.

There are also some good modern indie games here and there. Do you know the horror games from Chilla’s Art? They are alright. Can’t compete with the big titles, but they offer a unique experience.

Indie games are made by leftists & push left wing agendas more than a lot of triple A games.

in which case you've never played a boomer shooter

What is the gameplay like

It’s very relaxing, just a bit eerie, and it gets increasingly creepy. You just walk around and do simple tasks until shit hits the fan.

Copying and reutilizing old fads for you to play on shit Windows 10.

Just get a PS2.

Good goyim, play ze triple A Games

Better yet, emulator + Xbox controller

Is that a Joke or is there actually an original?

That's unironically the best way to play Wii games.

What about wii sports?

 

[deleted fren]

What about wii sports?

Outside of games with motion controls. Although you can assign motion controls to certain buttons in some games making them better. Mario Galaxy is a good example of this.

Omori = Earthbound but worse

Got that one off the top of my head since I poured 15 hours and 10$ into that disgrace

Undertale is original in story and their mercy system tho

Oh. Never played it. Just assumed it was earthbound but gay.

 

[SubhumanGamer]

I only like indie games because they are short and could be beaten in 1 to 2 sittings.

 

[slavcel11]

calls indie games boring and then goes on to play japanese games... yeah
but i agree most indie developers just go for hype instead of making their own shit. Like all of these vampire survivors clones, or minecraft clones, or slay the spire clones. Yeah very original, then we will hear from some players how triple anus industry sucks because it's only able of producing generic shit like assassins creeds, call of duties and far cries

bro you must be living a nice ass cave if you don't know Minecraft

I completely agree! You also left out that 90% of indie games recycle the same tired roguelike or Metroidvania formula, often paired with low-effort pixel graphics, all under the guise of being cvlt classic or hardcore.
Fuck indie devs.

[smegma producer]

i have never seen the point many makes of playing anything aslong as its indie, is as dumb as buying games simply for being AAA. I dont care about studio size i care about the game, and i wont care about size of the company if i dislike the product. most indie games wont appeal too me due too the overly simplistic nature many have, BuT tHeRe Is CoMplIcAted games aswell, yeah sure but most are not.

There might have been a period where indie games where groundbreaking and different, but now is more just the size of the team behind the games. Manor lords big sales point made by Youtubers and other simlear human cancer, was that the game was made by 1 guy, gameplay did not seem too matter much, because wow one guy made this lets throw 20 $ on a unfinished mess with barely any content. you dont want too play it? then you are a retard AAA fortnite playing simp NPC.

Most indie game devs are troons same as AAA just play old games

 

[runtofthelitter]

i like playing them because they tend to cost less

 

[starystulejarz]

Most indie games are made by passionless people that only know how to imitate old games poorly and don't add anything new to the table or at least shake something up, they just do 1:1 copy but with worse production quality of everything.

Sprites in old games were detailed and gorgeous to look at even now, while current indie devs are making ugly blob that doesn't even look like real recognizable characters or worlds.

Only recent indie games that were unique are Neon White and Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom i would add Selaco to the list but they devs are glorying trannies so fuck them. Another Crab's Treasure had LGBT flag Hades 2 uglified characters even more. Trepang 2 was a disappointment, Baltaro is fine but nothing special. BeamNG has amazing physics and a lot of mods but you can't really set up a real races against AI because one hit and you are split in half

I've noticed this in regards to sprites as well. I've played some old stuff on SNES last year and some of the games genuinely look fantastic and super detailed. Indie games don't compare

Don't forget about countless deck builders (rougelike too) and 2d platformers that don't always include metroidvania formula but are still stale and shitty nostalgia bait racing games that can't compare to old colin mcrae rally games

 

[Hoppipolla]

But ANYONE can create an indie game. You could create one. And it could be like whatever you want...

 

[Trident]

indie = no proper funding = small amateur dev team

 

[Linesnap99]

there are good indie games I tell you

I actively avoid any game that describes itself as "indie souls-like metroidvania"

[bruhwtf]

Bruh Minecraft, Terraria, Undertale, Yume Nikki, Dwarf Fortress, Classic Doom??? you're tweaking. Most of the indies you're pointing are just new gen pieces of trash where you just ignored the OGs.
