Mainstream Games are so bad nowadays

[Elven]

Sorry, I am not going with your popularity and i am not going to make huge... But...

I find mainstream really enjoyable. True, some of them are bad, but i like minestream, i play and enjoy them. I dont think that their quality has gone down.

I also like and love indie stuff. They are awesome, that is why i am here.

I like the best of both worlds

In new games I also get the impression they're often underestimating their players.

I don't think they're underestimating the average player. Just look at them and look at the most popular games these days - they're as simple and dumbed down as they can get. Most kids just don't have the attention span for challenging games and learning things on their own anymore.
