How are the high seas for gaming nowadays? I know it used to be pretty hit and miss before since many titles didn’t work properly, crashed and had no support for updates without downloading a new copy.
I feel like it’s two separate markets that are forced to share the same big tent known as “gaming”.
I never play AAA games. I’m not on some moral crusade, they just don’t appeal. I do not have the twitch reflexes for FPS, but smaller devs tend to make the sort of gameplay I like.
Right now the only indy game I can think of that’s truly competitive is Battlebit, and that’s only because everyone hates what became of Battlefield. Otherwise it’s just me and what feels like a half dozen other weirdos out here trying to build a bakery so we can feed pie to harpies, while 90% of the world is playing COD like it’s their job. It’s two vastly different people who do not have the same needs, is what I’m saying.
So maybe people need to deal with that and stop honking the “play indy” horn so much. If that was the solution, people would already be on it.
Stop preordering, support Indi games.
This isn’t hard guys.
And raise the flag ⚓

Updates are still not worked out but most games work fine if you get a nice repack like dodi or fitgirl. Never had issues with those
I’ve never seen piracy as doing a lot to support indie games.
Generally, your principles should be more about who you’d like to build up than tear down.
I’m not sure what Xbox Live has to do with pre-ordering. These days if you have Game Pass you’re technically supporting a whole host of indies.
Problem is many indi games just don’t have the same appeal as AAA games. There are a few gems but I need to be in the mood.

Yea I don’t play FPS games either. I enjoy the narrative story experiences like Horizon Dawn, The Last Of Us, Alan Wake, etc.
