I don't think that was the point (Gaming)

His problem is it's touted as an indie darling when it was very well funded by Sony.

No. The problem is entirely with the game. It's a game that creates an environment, but only asks you to interact with it in the simplest of ways. The puzzle sections aren't really puzzle sections but cutscenes masquerading as puzzles. It's unchallenging. The illusion of the world it creates is ultimately undone when you realize you can only explore it superficially. Games 15 years prior gave you more complex platforming options (such as Mario 64). The multiplayer is stupid since while you see other players, you can't really interact and journey together.

It's just a bad game, indie or not.

But yeah, I don't think I'd like to play it either. I really like the concept, but wouldn't enjoy it much.
