A term people often use to slander "quirky" indie turn-based RPG games that have similarities in terms of gameplay or themes that tackle mental health issues such as depression. Often used for indie games that are inspired or has the same vibe with the "Earthbound/MOTHER" series, hence the sentence.
Person A: Dude you should play OMORI, this game is so depressing.
Person B: Ah yes, the quirky earthbound inspired indie rpg.
Person A: bruh who cares about that! It's a great game anyway!
a 8-15 year old who tries their best to seem 'different' or 'quirky' by pretending to be depressed / pretend to be having mental illnesses / or pretending to be committing to unhealthy coping mechanisms (self harm). they usually do it for validation and sympathy when the truth is that they're completely fine or just basically lying the whole time.
examples of these kids can be seen in subreddits like r/im14andthisisdeep following the 'fake deep' trend and the commonly seen fetishization/glorification of mental illness and mentally illpeople.
"I hate edgy-quirky kids."

A quirky indie kid is the coolest of the cool. They are just effortlessly awesome and have superior music taste. Not to mention the impeccably gay fashion sense.
