You need to find a reviewer who focuses on indie you jive with. They’re funnel points for these sorts of things.
I like boomershooters, so Civvie11 and MandaloreGaming are my gotos.
Comment on 'Death Stranding 2' proves more video games need to get weird, experts say
mohab@piefed.social 2 days agoNot really… only if you play indie genres. We get like one or two good indie action games a year.
And to avoid any confusion: I mean action a la Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden II, God Hand… etc. Not roguelikes, zeldalikes, or soulslikes.
What about fighting games? I can probably name like 3 indies in the past decade that made it big: Skullgirls, Them Fighting' Herds, and Melty Blood/Under Night In-Birth (And I'm being generous here by ignoring ASW's involvement)
Plenty of weirdness in the genres you play, maybe, but that doesn't cover every genre.

One or two good indie action games a year? Gotta broaden your horizons my dude

How about you drop the BS and name games if you're that confident?

2024 had 100xRESIST, Hades 2, and Nine Sols immediately come to mind. I’m sure there are plenty more, but that’s 3 off the dome 🤷♂️
No need for the hostility. Hope you have a great rest of your weekend.

No hostility here. Just an appropriate response to your dolling out patronizing, unsolicited advise all while you're misreading my comment and missing my point.
All the games you listed play nothing like the games I listed, but I don't assume nuance is of factor to you if you're going around being condescending to strangers online. Hope you have a great rest of your weekend.
