While Take-Two is riding high on their announcement that a GTA 6 trailer is coming, its CEO has some…interesting ideas on how much video games could cost, part of a contingent of executives that believe games are underpriced, given their cost, length or some combination of the two.

Thank fuck for indie devs making the best games right now at an affordable price.

I have over a thousand games in my steam library and my most played is dominated by indie games.

[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 36 points 9 months ago (61 children)

I am curious which indie titles you would recommend.

Can you recommend any dungeon crawlers or survival games?

[–] simple@lemm.ee 9 points 9 months ago

Some dungeon crawlers I enjoyed: Hades, Enter the Gungeon, Torchlight 1 & 2, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Legend of Grimrock, The Binding of Isaac Rebirth

[–] CobblerScholar@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Hades on the Switch might be right up your alley

[–] HocEnimVeni@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

For the king (1&2) & Valheim

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is my all-time favorite mobile game. It's a Rogue-like with hundreds/thousands of ways to win; but be prepared to be humbled.

Literally just made it to the shop keeper after defeating the slime boss. It's a hell of a game. Maybe one of the best.

[–] solivine@sopuli.xyz 1 points 9 months ago

See I normally like this type of game but struggle to get into this one in particular. I'm also confused about most items in it.

[–] TeNppa@sopuli.xyz 1 points 9 months ago

For a literal dungeon crawler: Demeo

Neverwinter Nights has 20+ years of custom content, runs on almost anything, is still getting graphical & engine updates and has modules & persistent world servers that cover both of those genres & more.

[–] Burninator05@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

TIL: NWN is still alive.

Ape Escape is very quick to pick up and a blast to play. It's more of the old school side scrolling style, but definitely in the survival theme.

[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 3 points 9 months ago (5 children)

Tower defense and strategy in general.

[–] OmenAtom@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago

Thanks! On my wishlist already.

[–] sleisl@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago

Cool, thanks. Wishlisted this.

[–] Globulart@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Not exactly a minor indie game by any means, but bloons td6 is the game I've player the most on mobile by some distance. It's £6 with no microtransactions and a shit load of content. If you like TD games this is a home run.

[–] Kata1yst@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

If you want something competitive, Legion TD2

[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago

Looks interesting, thanks.

[–] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

For strategy paradox games are always fun

[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Do you mean Paradox Interactive? Publishers of Stellaris, Europa Universalis, etc.

[–] Psychodelic@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)
[–] taaz@biglemmowski.win 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Check out Splitgate not indie but I had a good blast with my friends

[–] clobble_wobble@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago

I thought Split Gate was shutting down.

Otherwise I'd agree it's great fun.
