This is just the argument a lot of media have over if "indie" means "independent artist" or if it's a signifier of aesthetic, marketing, or production budget. It's almost never the first one. Regardless I don't think self-publishing BG3 is enough for even a big indie production when it's a licensed game getting a ton of help from outside the video game industry from Hasbro. WotC is out here doing a lot of hype work making whole ass MtG and DnD tie-in sets for it, promotion as part of their Brand, shit like that. Licensed games are generally not considered indie, yeah. Tons of them are made by small studios, but they're still a licensed product. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. <cite>MacArrowny posted [p:977068132] in What do yo...
