This article makes so much sense! I used to never play indie titles until in 2011 I played Bastion for the first time and couldn't get enough of it. I even e-mailed the creators and told them how great of a game it was. I did the same when I played transistor and they responded both times and it wasn't automated! Since then I've played games like super meat boy, braid, fez, etc. They are beautiful games that can bring a refreshing new concept to the gaming world. It's just sad when an indie comes along with a great concept and flawless execution, only for the general AAA title players not realising that some of the cool "new" concepts in their AAA titles started out in an indie game. Great article! Definitely will be following!
