I feel this in my soul as someone who just spent two days refactoring down to a single controller button hint screen that supports images & icons for PS4/PS5/Xbox/Switch, localized to EFIGS/Chinese/PTBR, in aspect ratios from 4:3 to 16:10+, with accessibility text scaling for SteamDeck compliance. 😅

I think the bar is development cost.
For purposes of awards, the maximum allowed could be a defined percentage of the median budget of the GOTY nominees from the prior year.
I also think risk is a big part of being indie, so I'd vote to exclude situations like MintRocket/Nexon, but that's just me.

Totally get it, just wanted to share that I love these and am shocked they weren't already sold.

That tracks. I think it's from the year with the Foo Fighters and the mini-luchadors, but honestly a few of them blend together.

My issue is that I don't think enough folks know who that is, not just in respect to his viewpoints (which I agree can and should be completely ignored), but in regards to the platform that is helping to spread them.
I think the New York Times should be named and shamed with receipts.

I'm glad this post is getting attention, but I'm bummed that it doesn't include the name of the publication that ran this opinion, the New York Fucking Times. This is a RECURRING SECTION in what was once considered the gold standard in journalism.

Seems debatable in US:
"Courts do not require a literal monopoly before applying rules for single firm conduct; that term is used as shorthand for a firm with significant and durable market power — that is, the long term ability to raise price or exclude competitors."

Monopolization Defined
The antitrust laws prohibit conduct by a single firm that unreasonably restrains competition by creating or maintaining monopoly power.
