Most pretentious indie game?

[VaeVictis]

Care to elaborate? It was a solid platformer with good atmosphere. The story was pretty meh, but I can't see how it could be seen as pretentious.

I feel like its merit is simply derived from its visual style. You're right in that it has a superb atmosphere, but the story is almost nonexistent and it all feels rather hollow to me. Whereas Dear Esther felt like it was forcing its narrative upon the player, I feel like LIMBO just forced the visuals and environment on you. Obviously I'm not saying it's a bad game nor do I think so but I feel that people act like it's a lot deeper than it is but it's fairly superficial imo.

I felt the same way about 'Don't Starve'.
