This is full of bad takes. It's not a question of gatekeeping, at all.

First) Indie games have existed since the very beginning of the industry, even if it was mostly on micro-computers and pcs.

Second) Plenty of indie games being developed deserve the term. Why focus on a few of them that are only indie to some degree and not fully. They don't define the term, its silly. Next time a sole developer, after 5 years of development, releases a game on steam... are we going to tell him that "indie" means nothig?

Third) Big companies are the ones that are using the term to gain attention, losing its meaning in the process. Tetris and metal slug indies? come on! I'm not going to fall for it. Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft... they should NOT define what an indie game is, even if they are trying to.

Back in the day you gave Skyward Sword a 10/10, and now a 9/10 even if its better according to the text. It's one of my least favourite Zelda games, not an 9 or 10 imho, it has serious design problems.

Zero time dilenma was, basically, all the worst uchikoshi tropes in one cringy game. Its hard to imagine what he was thinking while writing it. Its a awful sequel, the story was poor, and the atempts at "twists" laughable. I don't mind Somnium (at least, it was better that that) but i dont think a sequel would improve on the original.

Sometimes i think he's a one trick pony that keeps using the same things over and over again.

Pandora's tower, Project zero iv, Punch Out, Elebits, Dewy's adventure, Geometry wars galaxies, Final fantasy fables: chocobo's dungeon, The sky crawlers, Rodea the sky soldier, Kororinpa...

@Stargazer Hundreds of games have a "slightly lower socre". I've never seen a page wondering "Is Ocarina of time (metascore 99) better than tony hawk pro skater 2 (metascore 98)?" It just makes no sense.

This whole article feels a bit click-baity... i dont know, i never heard anybody saying this game is better than Botw. It's a fantastic adult horror/romance visual novel, but i don't get the comparison at all here.

A lot of "it's no that good" feelings here.

This list is.... pretty bad. I mean... One Night Stand? Neo Cab? Where's Raging Loop, Yu-no, Grisaia, Aokana...? Seems like a list a newcomer to the genre would make.

@Muddy_4_Ever I can sell you a NFT of this article for 200.00$ if that makes you happy. And it's 100% not stolen content... yeah... i would never sell stolen content for money...

They already had eBay prices on the shop... and now that they have a eBay page it's even worse. That shop is a massive tourist trap, and insanely overpriced.

Most companies probably think it's not worth the effort. It's truly a shame, the more people can play and enjoy games comfortably, the better.

@RadioShadow It was released in Europe.

@Dijita @Dijita I get that but... Amazing Penguin? Spanky's Quest? I could see that with games that a lot of people enjoyed in the past like, official reproductions of rae things like Shantae or trip world, or masterpieces like the GBC metal gear game. But those two? Do people really want a limited edition of those games? Its weird to me.

But why those two? I mean, the original cartridges (without box) cost around 15$. They're not bad, but... i'm quite surprised, do people want them so much?
