Most people probably see DtD as indie even though it had a publisher. A new category could be “independent” which actually has games that were published independently.

Yes, indie is short for independent but the meaning of “indie” game isn’t as clear cut anymore (was it ever?). As you can see with Dave the Diver.

I can see that but I’d argue most people agree that being funded by Nexon is neither independent nor indie.
