It's amazing just how much better games have been from indie devs and smaller publishers. I don't see a single game from EA, Ubisoft, or Activision on there.

    Indie devs don’t have to deal with interference from suits who are obsessed with cost cutting and wholly out of touch with what people want

    Cost cutting and designing for the lowest common denominator. Suits are afraid to take risks, because they want to sell to the widest possible audience. So they end up playing it safe and making bland milquetoast games that all feel exactly the same.

    In fairness even if a big studio released a great game, enough people would either try it and not like it, or just give a bad review because it's EA, that it wouldn't make this list.

    Indie games don't have that problem.
