You'll have to forgive me, dear readers, because I am a little confused on what's going on at the moment. What the heck actually is an indie or independent game nowadays?
To me it looks like the kind of game with risks and innovations and gameplay you’d never see in a Call of Duty or Assassin’s Creed or Wolfenstein franchise. Is that totally negated by having a large publisher?

Where does that leave Dave the Diver?

I haven’t played Dave the Diver.
I’d say yes. It’s still backed by the resources and obligations of a big studio.
