A look into the sad trajectory of indie games from high successful releases to complete irrelevancy in just a few weeks or months.
That's the thing with gaming there's always new experiences to have why spend months or years playing a single game when there's a new experience right around the corner.
Indie or AAA if your building your game expecting long term player counts you'll probably be disappointed as gamers often enjoy something for a few weeks and move on only to return if it's truely a classic.
Out of all the generations I've experienced there's games from 30 plus years ago I still dust off and play like super Mario bros, earthbound, vice city and san Andreas being games I treasure and revisit every few years but I'm not going back to play a game designed to keep me engaged for months on end because it's also designed to milk my wallet in most cases.
Build a great game that people love make it playable offline and ask does it matter if the concurrent player count is under 100 a year post launch more often that not it doesn't
The price of entry is too high to take chances like I used to. Was looking at V Rising and that ranges from $50-$130 CAD. That’s a lot for an indie imo. By the time it goes on sale, the player count might be dwindling. But that’s the trade-off, I guess.
i would probably put ninja gaiden higher up on that list. gaiden should be top 10 at least alan wake since we havnt seen much can remain where its at till we see more. Pretty good list though. Left for dead isnt really on my list for games i really want to play. The game just seems to me something that belongs in the arcades but we'll see
I think the lowest that game has been on all the other lists was like 5th.
heh, wasnt expecting ghostbusters to be on the list
I WONDER WHAT THEIR TOP TEN IS.
It sooo stands out, and easily top 5 on any real list. The whole 07' gdc (game developers) feel like me. Trust that.
