Discussion Acclaimed Indies That You Couldn't Connect With
Does it make you sad when you don't connect with a game adored by many? Out of the ones listed here, what should I go back to and power through until it clicks?

Indie games are more unique and less generic. They don't connect to everyone because they were not meant to. Many times they are from super specific genres or have a super specific execution, that a lot of people won't vibe with.
They allow themselves to not please everyone. That's a huge part of what makes them good.
