I just watched that bit. Unfortunately I'm not watching the rest from Kinda Funny it blurs the line of disparity with him being invovled with PR.
I'll watch the others linked here.
Oh, I just noticed there's no announced physical release of this yet? That's too bad.
Wonder how soon before we get Limited Run Games and adjacent releases on PS5.

If I say what I think of this take, I will be banned. So I will ignore you instead.
n-no u__u'
please! do not! you don't know what you do!!
It's like one of them kiddy Nintendo games or something. I prefer my video games to be dark, gritty, AAA masterpieces thank you very much.
I was going to question this statement but I see everyone else has that covered.
Ever since I played Beyond Good and Evil I'm a sucker for games where you take pictures of creatures as part of the game's mechanics.
Indie games are the best....even if this isn't your cup of tea...
Watched the first couple minutes of the Giant Bomb video and it looks like the level of whimsy I expected. Day 1.
This is an all-time bad take and I kinda wish you'd made it it's own thread, rather than a post in a thread that's probably not going to get a massive amount of traction.
Really looking forward to this. So damn charming!!
edit: y'all, don't give attention to the obvious flaming takes heh

A lot of things tbh.
Firstly it was one of the prime offenders of the typical "indie section" during a supposedly next gen showcase during which most people shut down for 30 mins.
Then it also has the typical low production value look of most indie games.
Like most indies that try to stand out, it also seems to rely on a different-for-the-sake-of-different gameplay gimmick that will soon lose its novelty.
At least they made it 3D, so that's more than most indies can manage.
I wish I could share the same enthusiasm, but I can guarantee that this would bore me to the point of agitation.
Your talking about the same greg Miller that spent YEARS talking shit on the ps3 right? The dude isn't some fanboy. He's had plenty of negative things to say about Sony and has never backed down from speaking his mind about it.
LOL.
Enjoy your AAA(A) by-the-numbers focus-tested fast food meals I guess.
same. i don't like when games dev wants to try something creative
Why don't you just watch it? There's enough gameplay in the video.
Everything will be okay, you don't need to white knight for a internet personality. He will be okay regardless of what I think.
Octodad was great. Has this developer made a non-3D Game?
idk how the final product will be, looks good IMO but you never know, but I don't think any game should bore you to agitation.
indies have lower production values but so does any small business. Seems like a weird thing to hold against them, clearly they've invested in the voice talent and seemingly they've been making it for like 5 years.
and "different for the sake of different" idk dude. Not saying you have to like most indie games but this is nothing but a good thing for the industry to have studios trying new things. It seems like you have some resentment or issues with indies, and that's fine you do you, but you're missing out if don't give some a try.
I think if you did you'd be surprised how much you enjoy them, just like any non indie game. I'd recommend Orba Dinn, Stardew, Hollow Knight, Sayonara Wild Hearts, and Donut County based on what you posted.
I watched some of the gb one, dont have time to watch the rest right now, just curious what the over all vibe was. Im because i didnt like octodad
Outside of the first hour of "oh these controls sure are wacky". I wanted to know if the game seems like its a one time joke game or if there is more substance this time around
Your complaints seem rather arbitrary and many don't even seem to be about the game itself, or indie games in general, but some weird image in your head of what indie games are.
I skimmed through the Giant Bomb video since I don't want to see too much but it's looking pretty great. Seems like a good degree of potential mechanically in mixing up the different ways to catch Bugsnax. And making them interact in different ways.
Trash tier take.
Bugsnax isn't 100% my cup of tea from the marketing I've seen, but that doesn't make me think any less of all the hundreds of other amazing indie games out there, many of which are masterpieces.
What completely arbitrary complaints.
Low production value?? What do you expect from games with a handful of devs who aren't even going for a more graphically intensive showcase? Your take is horrible and using this game as some sort of example for why Indie games cant be taken seriously shows how limited and probably boring your taste in games are.
This sort of take is exactly why game devs think they need to push the envelope further and further graphically, leading to crunch, leading to pubs having a flimsy excuse to monetarily gouge the players even more .
