The video game equivilent of those "artists" who take a dump on a canvas and tell people to fund them because they are breaking boundaries and BS like that.

I like how they are complaining about Steam refunds because their 'games' are too short. There was even one complaining that Steam's review system was bias against their game because it required 5 minutes of playtime before a review could be written.

As for their games, generally it's self serving waffle that add to nothing in the industry except maybe their ego. I don't mind alternatives to traditional game design but more often than not, games coming from clique hipsters are characterised by preachy content, a lack of gameplay and a desperate desire to seem 'quirky' or 2deep4u, usually through crappy art.

Typical example is 'I get this call every day'. Bonus points for the mentally unstable developer.

I actually think I might have a tiny inkling what it's about, tho'.

Hipsters, in any industry are a blight

I call that "creative spelling."

They are but just prey for the great sterling, son.

Are there are any examples? I don't know what is meant?

That is all.

I remember when he made the news. I don't know the details though... nor did any of it sound interesting.

Well there's a perfect example of a member apart of the holier than thou hipster game scene.

I find most indie games to be boring and too short. I know they are trying something new, and they have a small crew. Over all though, their games are too short and lack luster. I prefer the AAA title and game companies because the combat, story, graphics, and length are generally better.

I heard something about the indie clique fuming at Steam for allowing refunds. If true this is good.

I don't look at indie games any differently than the rest of the industry. Only games I like and games I don't. Whether they're AAA or Indie, it doesn't matter.

Yep, some of my favorite games over the last 5 years have been indie games.

Have any indie devs gone so far as to compare their product to a steak like the Order 1886?
 

"If you go and you eat a steak, if you pay $100 for a steak that tastes like the best steak you've ever had in your life but it's only 200 grams versus paying the same price for the worst steak you could want--but it's all-you-can-eat," he said. "There's an argument to be made that one is better than the other depending on who you are. If you just want to be full all the time then all-you-can-eat terrible steak, maybe that's for you?"

I think it's cute that they think you can get a steak that qualifies as one of the best ever for $100.

Indie games are only good on phones when passing time while taking a dump. Other than that they are for people with vision trouble who can't tell the graphics are bad.

I like hipsters personally.

You know I'd tell you folks what indie games I like and buck this trend of pretentious hipster games....But you've probably never heard of them.

[Seraphim24]

I don't really know why people assume indie game developers are pretentious or something either, they're just obviously unhappy with the state of games development and make their own, there is nothing pretentious about that, in fact it means we get to play more games.

 

I thought the harassment that guy Mr. Fish suffered was awful really.
