    There are plenty of weird people making weird games if you know where to look. itch io and DLSite, for instance.

      That was literally his point…that the weird people make indie games and not AAA games.

        There is a space between ‘itch.io freebie that runs in terminal’ and ‘TROUT: Sacred Band 8’ and the unprecedented level if sliders for dicks in character creation

        And it’s for the better, the AAA games industry devours talent and spits out mediocrity and burnouts. I would prefer that small indie studios keep control of their creative output rather than being devoured by the money machine.
