Do you play AAA or Indie?

[Blaz]

I've seen myself playing games that were originally indie, (like undertale and minecraft(and maybe warframe))
idk why, prob cause I'm broke

I am much more likely to play /purchase indie games now. They cost less, they are often more inventive and take risks with mechanics and story. They support the dev directly.

But I also never pre-order because I absolutely want to know how buggy the game is before I get it.

It's not as simple as "I play Triple A" or "I don't play Triple A". There's developers I trust and developers who've lost that trust. I don't want to play from Bethesda or Bioware anymore, for example, but that doesn't mean I don't want to play Triple A games - I'm hyped for The Outer Worlds and Doom Eternal, among others.

As for Indies? Again it's not as simple as "I play Indies", "I don't play Indies". I love the pixel horror genre, and seek them out. If you want a good dungeon crawler or a good looter-looter you're gonna need to go Indie. But I don't like "artsy" type games, I don't like the typical Indie adventure type game, etc.

I play both, but indie games always seem to be more unique in characters and worlds. Hollow Knight being my personal favorite because of the interesting world it sets up.

I play whatever looks good. As of late, the AAA industry has been boring me so I've been kicking back to some older games that I never got to finish as a kid and looking into smaller developers on Steam. I still keep an eye out for AAA, but it's not looking good right now.

I find myself playing way more Indie games recently, but I still love a bunch of AAA games, like smash or The Witcher 3.

These days I find myself playing more A and B tier games rather than either AAA or Indie.

[JackofTears]

Both. I find myself playing more indie games these days, as the AAA industry is going to shit, but I still bought AC Odyssey and Shadow of the Tomb Raider, so I'm not done with AAA companies quite yet.

The last couple years have been great for indie and AA developers, my personal biggest shoutouts going to "Divinity Original Sin 2" and "Senua's Sacrifice".

I play what I like, but I've been slowly moving away from AAA for a few years now. The only AAA franchise I still buy regularly is Far Cry. Haven't purchased an EA game for 5 years and I'm quite proud of it seeing what a circus that company has been in the last couple years.
