The Cargo Cult of Game Mechanics (Destiny)

Honestly, Deus Ex is probably going to look like a cave painting in about 40 years.

YES! That's the whole point of progress. If it doesn't, then we've been wasting our time.

And the fact that you simply dismiss indie games like this is a hasty generalization.

Name an "indie" game that has significantly advanced the artform or been extremely influential for the better.
