I’ve been sticking with indie games for the past few years now. Definitely the better choice, though a handful can get too attached to the games they make.

This past week, one indie dev got super pissed at me when I made a Steam review calling her game bad and going in-depth on why it’s so bad. I’ve reviewed a few hundred games now, and this is the first time an indie dev got that mad over my Steam review.

There’s another dev I support who felt disappointed over a reviewer with a large following bad-mouthing his game. Some fans offered to help defend the dev’s honor by commenting in that Steam review, but the dev talked them down.

Can’t say I blame such devs, though - quality indie games take a long time to make after all. A stranger calling your game bad after all that effort certainly could make an indie dev see red.
