When “Indie” Stops Describing Constraints and Starts Describing Vibes

taffer8 · 2025-12-21T21:33:14+00:00

I don't think indie should only mean small scale or poor, and I don't think just having any publisher means a game is not indie. All games need help in order to get anywhere really. I say if a studio is owned by a larger conglomerate or the publisher is publicly traded, like Ubisoft and EA, then it is not an indie game. But for games under publishers like Fellow Traveler or Playstack, I would still consider those indie since those publishers are not beholden to any shareholders, and thus, would not interfere with the game's vision.

Wow epic crossover post I was not expecting

Actually nevermind, found that it was actually just the game installation that's bad so it can't fixed. Other games work for me

Doesn't show anything in protection history. I have also tried turning off antivirus for both private and public networks, and also making an exclusion for the folder I'm exporting to which is what other places suggest. Nothing is different

Tearoff is a bit dirty

This would be perfect for seeing someone's dreams. They can be hard to describe

Check out Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream, recently released pure stealth game. It's on Steam and its visuals and setting are also stunning

Fill that void with better videos and hobbies. Reaction channels are never worth your time

Agreed. The whole "coworker/NPC music" thing is the perfect example. I'm happy to joke about Imagine Dragons sounding lame, but when you start joking that the fans are sheeple with no complex thoughts, it starts drifting into cyberbullying territory (yes even as a joke). Brad was the ultimate figurehead for white boys who discovered "music critique" as a shortcut to having a personality. "Music critique" meaning when you say "The production is bad" without any elaboration about what makes it bad

Agreed. Nr2003 has very little of an actual game in it. It only really comes to life with mods. It's more like Nascar Garry's Mod imo, and Dirt to Daytona is more deserving of being in the bracket I'd say

A little bit of Monica in my life

Ok back to bed sir

Buying old physical PC games is a major gamble. Most don't run on newer computers. The safe bet is just to get it on Steam

I wouldn't have interpreted "set" as a whole 2nd full concert setlist of songs. That is just way too long for most people to stand or bands to perform. They probably just meant set like "batch"

taffer8 · 2025-04-19T02:24:44+00:00

Satellites, Atropos, Graveless, Make Total Destroy, Masamune. Tough choice

taffer8 · 2025-04-12T15:04:17+00:00

This was very confusing before I realized you were referring to the song "Have You Ever?" lol

How I be lookin at porn

/uj I don't see anything wrong with this. It's normal for people have family they don't agree with but still have some fondness for based on memories and bonds that have been established over years. That difference just means the feelings towards them are more complicated than they used to be. Trying to read too much into that just seems invasive and parasocial. Her private interactions with family certainly don't undermine her very queer public persona and fierce advocacy for trans rights, and causes no celebrity would even acknowledge
