Date: February 2nd, 2026 11:36 AM Author: cowgod Yeah it’s wild and they pretty much got away with it too. Marketers hyped up Indies, using Ubisoft as a sacrificial lamb.
Try telling them Expedition 33 is a fake indie and they’re like “30-person team, champ. The State of AAA 😏.” Like what the fuck are they talking about. That’s the same team size as Metroid Prime 1, which also had a Publisher. Just like them. What the fuck. These Losers are just captivated by the narrative and want a Reprieve from the State of AAA.
This is a situation where even if E33 won GOTY and even if it were nominated in the indie category that the voters should’ve just voted for Silksong imho. |

Date: February 3rd, 2026 7:51 PM Author: cowgod I literally still can't parse what redditors are talking about with this. Expedition 33's publisher is an indie publisher ffs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kepler_Interactive
the same thing exists in Film. Fox Searchlight et al. The Films they distribute are "independently" conceived but for fuck's sake no one's like "The Full Monty, a triumph. Indie Films such as this offer a reprieve. The Descendants, a tour de force. AAA is on notice."
gamers are just cringe af, that's the problem. that's the fundamental problem. |

"Balatro had a publisher. Pacific Drive had a publisher. Sifu had a publisher. All these games got nominated for GOTY/Indie GOTY. Guess what. Pacific Drive, Sifu and Expedition 33 were both published by the same company: Kepler Interactive. Yet no one debates if these other games are indie or not. 😏" |
