I Always forget that Nintendo games are Triple A,
I always get that indie dev vibe in spite of being as far from indie as one can get. Not in community engagement, rather in the notable detail and unique art style each game has, like you can tell the developers care about what they’re working on. You can definitely tell when Nintendo themselves develop a game vs. when they publish a game. (cough Game Freak cough)
There were countless developers that folded during the transition to HD, 3D graphics in the PS360 era, and I feel like Gamefreak would have easily been one of them if Pokemon hadn’t taken off the way it did.
Resident Evil 4
Final Fantasy 7
Elden Ring
Tears of the Kingdom
Forgot about Elden Ring.

Game Freak needs to be put in a retirement home

Does Alan wake 2 count?
No, fuck epic
^Still ^gonna ^get ^it ^if ^comes ^to ^steam ^though.
If not, I’ll just watch a YouTube playthrough.
Fuck yes it does. That game set a new gold standard for me on video game production quality. Phenomenal game, and is even well optimized.
