What do you think about indies, SW? Love 'em? hate'em? don't really care? I originally didn't think much of them, but this new gen has convinced me that there's definitely a place for them in the industry and in my library. Especially for my Vita. It's almost like they were made for the system (fits the screen well, controls are simple, you can bring it anywhere). Consoles I have yet to rap my head around just because I really want to enjoy something grander on my big tv screen with my dualshock 4.
Also, what is your definition of indie? I know literal interpretation means it was developed by an independent studio, but I always likened them to the smaller experiences this article talks about. I definitely think the industry needs indies as it fills avoid for games that we don't see too much anymore. Bonus question: Will indies flourish this gen? I hope so
