    I stopped playing AAA games years ago. They are all trash.

    Indie games are where it’s at

      They’re polished, but nearly all of them are too safe.

      The ones that subvert things a little are always best for me, and these always get mixed reactions from people who went in with a set idea of what they wanted from it.

      Red Dead Redemption 2 being a slow paced wild west simulator rather than Grand Theft Horse is a prime example. It didn’t play by safety and doing popular things. It did what they wanted it to be, and it’s all the better for it.

      Not all, but yeah. 75% of my wishlists are weird and interesting indie stuff from the constant Steam demo fests.

        Yeah I’m playing cyberpunk for the first time and really enjoying it. i don’t know how much it innovates, but I’d say it was certainly a good game.

      The good ones are solid tho and last a long time, I do prefer indie/smallteam for the most part now
