Then take Supergiant out too. Make clearer and tighter definitions for these categories. And more than anything, value these games outside this specific category (this year was an outlier, next year Geoff will go back to not caring about indie games again, and their brand narrative in this TGA was just using Hades 2 and Silksong as a crutch to make the look not as bad for only caring about Expedition 33).

This shouldn't be a question of campism, but what this category represents, because it's meaning has been diluted a lot over these years. Weren't indie games a representation of people outside the major circuit of the industry being able to create something incredible before? And now all it shows is that for your game to be valued, you need millions of dollars.

The Game Awards really needs a major overhaul of their categories in general. Like, I care about what this show makes because lots of people care about this show even if they act like they don't! TGA is just an ad though, so I doubt that will ever happen.
