Especially on PC. Also, people forget that Indie doesn't necessarily mean "made by a small team/low budget". It just means it was produced by a studio that isn't at the behest of some massive corperation/faceless number crunching shareholders. CD Projekt Red is an independant studio, as is Valve.

Also, some games are developed independently by small studios, but then marketed and published by a larger company. Devolver is an example of a publishing house with an excellent track record of just letting the indie dev teams they work with do whatever they want.

CD Projekt is publicly traded.

Yup. I tend to like Annapurna published games.
