What is the most "Indie Feeling" game that is definitely NOT from an Indie Studio? (lemmy.ca)

After the "Dave the Diver" nomination for Best indie Game at the Game Awards, I've been struggling to draw a clear line here.

I feel like, yes, Dave the Diver feels very Indie to "me" but it's hard to say that of the studio itself.

Is the "Indie feel" something bigger studios might look to imitate in the future?

I might get behind something like that.

Fe. It's a small game by a small studio but was published by EA of all people.

Also, Child of Light by Ubisoft.

All of the Ubi-art games were great, Rayman Legends, Valiant Hearts and Child of Light, all fantastic games. And then Ubisoft said they would only make open world games. Idiots.

Forgot about Child of Light! Striking visuals on it, too!
