And why they are so frustrated about indie games? Trolls on their quest for food? I am new to indie game community, so, can you give me some explanation?

I think the answer is all in the name, Pretentious Indie Gamer Scene, they hold a gold standard to anything and everything reviewed. I read a couple of them, but had to stop when coming across the article on a leaked beta of Spelunky. Oh, you didn't see that? Probably because it's filed under Cave Story Derivatives, a fact that's repeated a number of times through the review. This is promptly followed by posts containing comments like "Cave Story sucked". Yeah, seems like the kind of place people longing for human contact so harshly, even confrontation is a welcome respite would hang out. Or they are so clever and ironic it's extremely hilarious.

Judging by their clothes I'm hoping for the latter.

Well, at least they're not lying with that name.
Though, I have no idea how you could consider Spelunky a Cave Story derivative. The games are almost nothing alike beyond basic mechanics of run and jump! Might as well call all platformers Mario derivatives, or call all FPS' Doom derivatives.

Clearly they both take place in caves! |
