@mrdavidamnesia Don't ask me. I side with you on this. Games shouldn't just become something pretty to look at for an hour before putting it down forever, but there's no harm in trying to express something with your game's art style or story. As long as the gameplay is good and it isn't super short because it wasn't the main focus, I'm fine with it.

Why do people want video games to be art and nothing more than a quirky pastime. Why. Are they stupid?

@mrdavidamnesia You can communicate your message without wanting to turn games into something silly.

@mrdavidamnesia "Muh indie titles!" Still games. First and foremost should be games.

@mrdavidamnesia I'm just saying that it sounds pretentious and stupid when every reviewers thinks games should transcend their place and be something else.

@mrdavidamnesia He's just saying that games should be games and nothing else. Not pieces of art or anything abstract like that.

@mrdavidamnesia Games (I guess) can be considered art but shouldn't strive to be it. If it's good, it's good.
