How is it that these European indie studios manage to be SO much better at making RPGs than the rest of the planet? First CDPR with WItcher 3 which is the best action adventure game in history, now Larian with DOS2 which is the best actual RPG of our times.
Is it because that region of Europe hasn't been corrupted by political agendas and soulless, jerkoff college students or is it because indie studios are allowed creative freedom?

Because they try to make video games and not glorified books.

CDPR is, indeed, an independent studio.
Logan Mitchell
Are you saying that Belgium, which houses the capital of European Union is NOT corrupted by political agendas

Lack of stockholders.
If a company is owned by a couple friends then they can build whatever they want. Once the original owners get bought out and suits become in charge, then you must get a yearly revenue and increase in sales, appeal to certain demografics, stay within the deadlines and so on.
Gavin Ward
They are independent, yes. They're indie unless you're just using that word to mean "tiny dev that makes games I complain about".
Jackson Hall
What is your definition of indie even? Larian has been indie for their entire existence. Their last two games had to be crowd funded.

Also winning recipes must be repeated, with minimal risk, to keep the revenue up.

Easy, whites are the smartest/most creative race on the world. it only makes sense that the regions with the most whites are also the regions with the better creative works

The media and entertainment, I mean. All you have to do is watch modern American to understand what I'm talking about. People aren't allowed to make what they want any more. Everything has to be this subversive mind rape about allowing gays and transgenders to exist and be terrorists to you everyday life. They don't even want stories to be about anything. It's nothing but a vehicle for political agendas. It's become unwatchable and unplayable dreck in 99% of everything produced.

CRPGs are the only type of games that the Euros as a fucking content have been consistently good at producing. Most games from the Euro region, regardless of country, that are not CRPGs are fucking trash, especially in the 80s and 90s. Yes, I'm even talking about those treasured titles on the Specy and Amega. THAT SAID, Turican is fucking melt your face off rad.
Parker Turner
How can JRPGs even compete!?

>gay people existing = gay people being "terrorists to you everyday life"

Don't go putting words into peoples' mouths. And don't go terrorizing the thread with your derailment topics.

the word kinda loses it's meaning if you start using it on valve and ubisoft too
Jonathan Davis
Those are corporations, user.
Carter Lopez
...and CDPR isn't?
Christian Fisher
Reminder that there are no blacks in DOS2
That must be why it's selling like hotcakes
Adam Murphy
There is actually one. He owns a fish exporting company that sells tainted fish.
