So you only play indie games?

Pretty much.

More specifically, I only play new games that I can verify the author is receiving a fair wage. That tends to be pretty indie.

In the rare case that I'm somehow caught up on my indie game library, I also play open source games and AAA title abandonware.

Moving from "patient gamer" to "gamer with a strong stance against Nintendo's and EA's bullshit" honestly wasn't a huge deal. And it continues to be easy on my wallet.
