The more you insist on videogames being art, the more political bullshit will get shoehorned into them.

Movies are art
Video games are not
Vidia movies are art?

I'm going to die if this is what I think it is.

Of course they are, they're a jaw-dropping medium.

is my life art?

The term "art" no longer has the implication of quality, so why the hell not

>>379480563
no, art isn't reviewed
"7/10 doesn't run at 60 fps"

art was never about quality. it's about bringing an abstract concept into reality. whether it's done "well" is irrelevant. anyone can say a super photorealistic 3D shooter is shit because it has a boring story, or that a good story sucks because it has shit graphics. you'll never win.

damn... vivec looks like THAT?

That's why these discussions are bullshit. If everything can be art, who cares?

Sure but the barrier to entry severely limits the medium.

Who the fuck cares?

Thanks to post-modernists everything is called art nowadays.

I can literally shit on a plate, leave it on the ground in a modern art gallery and come back in 2 hours to find a shitload of people taking pictures of it.

And yes, videogames are art. They require skill to make. They're a medium for people to express abstract concepts. Give me one fucking reason why videogames aren't art, I dare you.

Just because everything is art doesn't mean that everything is good art
