You’re being sensitive to language here when you don’t need to be. Your games are very much mechanics facing.
I disagree. My last game was not about mechanics at all -- it was intentionally minimalist in terms of mechanics, and the main point of the game was outside them entirely. So I am not sure why you are saying this.

You’re right, mechanics is not right word. How’s “cleverness” sound. You value cleverness and discovery(maybe?). Whatever it is you value, it is yours. The absolute way in which you speak is off-putting to people not in your camp. You want x doesn’t mean indie hasn’t evolved.

How many times in that interview do I say "this is just my style, I am not trying to declare something absolute?" How many more times do I have to say it before you decide to hear what I am saying?
-
I don't agree with "cleverness" either. I am interested in discovering what games are able to do, as a medium, that is particular to games, that can't be done as well or better in other media. I said this several times. *Anything* meeting this description, I am interested in.
