• @sculd @theangriestbird I do know that developers creating AAA titles do work hard as well to deliver a well polished game trying to fulfill the demand of the community and that it’s hard to be as creative as a indie studio if you need to keep a really high graphic and performance standard. Thank you for making those games as well.

    But I like to dive deep into mechanics of games and don’t care that much about graphics.

      Same. I find myself increasingly alienated by so called AAA games and turned to more indie games. I don’t need high graphics nor 60fps, just give me good game play.

      Vampire Survivor and Balatro are only two of the more successful examples. I bought dozens of other indie titles that have little to no media coverage.

      I do play one GaaS (from Mihoyo) casually though and it sort of fill my need when I want something to chase.

      • @sculd I do play some AAA titles as well, my last addition was Baldurs Gate 3 I think. Not sure if X4: Frontier is an AAA title.

        But Baldurs Gate was really well done, with much respect to the community. X4 is more a niche thing without big competition.
