When it's expected, it doesn't happen (Gaming)

Working with "indie" game developers, I don't see any of this nonsense as accurate for such wide range of creations. People are using some documentary or scandalous news or the trend of labeling and hating "hipsters" to stereotype a games instead of trying games they haven't heard of before, often handcrafted by passionate and self-disciplined designers and artists, a range that includes titles that have just as great of chance of being terrible or fantastic as "AAA" games, which is another term stereotyped as much or more than "indie".

The pretentiousness is mostly on the side of the gamers and journalists.

So, resolving some cognitive dissonance?
