video games have had enough time that they should be artistically mature like movies but oh well

@WandererUber theres often still some kind of narrative in many games but they're rarely good. movie are also often crap but a lot of professionalism went into them. that is dying too lol but at least we had a good hundred years

@sun the art in a video game comes from gameplay but you have to have a brain to make that so publishers switched to hiring liberal arts majors and stuffing inane storylines down our throats instead.

@sun that's my point. They're not good and even if they are you're just making a movie. If you want to make a good game, you have to have good gameplay at the center. Look at the Quantic Dream "games"
They're not really games at all. But he has really "artistically matured" the "visual novel" or whatever you call this. Despite the liberal storylines.

@sun Real progress in games comes from exploring new state of mind through different play conditions. Shooters can make you feel all types of ways. The rush of a good Battle Royale or a Survival shooter is unlike anything else on the planet. Same with other genres, like these Coop ones that have you split up. That's the real "artistic maturation" imo.
