III, an answer to AAA. I like it. Some major independent players behind this. Hope it goes far.
Go triple A games, go indie/triple I games, go world!
“45 minutes of bangers”, I hope it’s a sausage and bratwurst cooking show.
If i see any triple iii devs on kickstarter i rage
Well deserverd! The original devs behind vanilla Dead Cells did a fantastic job.
Darkest Dungeon 1 ist still my fav indy game. In contrary to DD2, that game is just bad.
Slay the Spire was so cool when it first launched, I had so much fun with it.
Overall all three are among the most fun indy games out there 🙂
I want to see those handlebar moustaches back.
*facepalm
No. This is the problem with gaming. Labeling anything with a stupid moniker only ruins the expectation when it becomes diluted over time, which is exactly what happened to “AAA”, now being mocked by its own with “AAAA” and releasing a game that’s no where close to indie quality, and this includes Lizard Lady vs. the Cat People.
Enough, please.
Have an award ceremony. Base it on what made the game worth of receiving it.
Not a fucking stupid title.
Awesome, more content more games more fun
Top tier indie devs! Let’s gooo I love it.
To be honest none of these games are really the best of indie showings, so it comes off to me as being a little bitter.
The indie studios making deeply impactful games like Hades or massively popular games like helldivers don’t need to stoop to the level of making their own awards show just to get a win. They’re aiming for goty, or indie goty, not making their own award just to give themselves a gold star.
DD2 sucked, slay the spire was good but ran out of depth, dead cells is excellent but clearly derivative of Blasphemous and Hyperlight Drifter.
Dave the diver sweeps this year
Good move indie games and small studios will get better exposure without getting buried in the hype of bigger AAA showings in the usual games awards
also terrarias dev are also there probably to announce the final™ update
Better than the quadruple-A awards where Skull & Bones won every category.
Will we finally get the release date for Silksong?
I love this.
Indie is what’s gonna save gaming. Especially with Godot, Unity and Unreal all being so advanced and easy to use th barrier to making a game is lower than ever and small teams with consistent and high quality visions can get back to making fun experiences
Why aren’t the devs behind Hades involved? They also seem like a perfect fit for this.
Glad to see it’s Evil Empire and not Motion Twin. Not getting the DC update that was in development because MY didn’t want it to overshadow their new game was BS.
