    This idea of triple I is going to be corrupted and backfire if it becomes organized. What I mean is that instead of great games like Stardew or Terraria (just to name 2 as examples) being labeled as triple I, we will instead get Ubisoft marketing their next open world as triple I only because it is based on a “new” IP. That new IP will likely be a warrior type character fighting for justice while assembling a crew of interesting characters to help them in their mission in a never before seen world filled with friends and foes alike… Blah blah blah.

    Triple I will soon mean triple A, but for new IP. Triple I should be a designation bestowed by the community on outstanding indie games. It should be subjective and unregulated, otherwise it will lose its meaning and that’s exactly what large studio’s want.

      I don’t know about new IP even. When I saw the list, I found it a bit jarring to see Prince of Persia and Castlevania in an indie showcase.
