Sky, there is still hope for us gamers.
My observations are that indie studios blossom more and more - backed by a usually mature and willing-to-pay community.
Some more or less successful examples out of my head:
- Minecraft
- Amnesia
- Prison Architect
- Paranormal
- Kerbal Space Program
- Plants vs. Zombies
- Deadlight
- Hotline Miami
etc.
I own all of the above except Deadlight and Hotline Miami and love those games to death, never regret the few dollars I spend on them compared to the ridiculously overpriced rail-shooter AAA titles that come unfinished and leave you dissappointed and poor.
I also know you play the Hunter quite enhusiastically which is just another example, even if this title can be quite expensive... and so friggin addicting.
Just ignore the big studios from EA over Ubi to SEGA and continue enjoying games how they were meant to be: Made with passion, heart and supported long after release.
I can also recommend pages like GOG.com to dig our old pearls from better times, polished to run on modern OS - but I imagine you know about this.
Just my quick 2 cents.
Grüße...
