another out of touch company to avoid the games of I guess
That's okay. The indie scene has plenty of amazing titles to keep anyone busy for a long time!
any suggestions?
Depends what you're looking for.
Deep Rock Galactic is my most common recommendation. Dwarves, mining, space bugs. Devs care a lot about the community and community input.
Elite Dangerous is great if you want an excellent space flight sim (Frontier isn't exactly indie, but the Elite devs operate like one).
Warframe is fun and has the absolute best, non-predatory F2P model.
Lost Ruins, Batbarbarian, Aquaria, and Hollow Knight are excellent Metroidvanias.
Ori and the Blind Forest is technically a Metroidvania, but it's a beautiful experience, from the art, to the story, to the music.
Yoko Island Express is a pinball platformer. Yes, you read that correctly.
Blasphemous is a 2D Souls-like.
Hades, RAD, and Mana Spark are great rogue-lites.
You could spend hundreds if not thousands of hours on the first three alone.
DRG is fantastic gameplay! Up to 4 player coop, procedurally generated, different mission types.
Rock and Stone!
