Both of those are valid

Fun is subjective.

>>390214327
both are fine
but for the sake of argument gameplay has no age limit, good game is good gameplay regardless of the themes of the game

good gameplay can be too easy for experienced players resulting in unstimulated gameplay.

Yes. Video Games pander to the lowest common denominator, and maybe like six games are actually adult without being pretentious as fuck.
This is why video games have not become real art yet.

Games cant be art for the same reason sports cant be art. Soccer is not art, nor is hockey. It doesnt matter if you shove some kind of story to soccer, it still doesnt become art.

Games are nothing but a set or rules.

The thing is, adults DO NOT enjoy kids games. You're just confusing games made for all ages to games made for children. A game like Animal Crossing can be fun for both a kid and an adult, because designing a house and relaxing in a small town is enjoyable for both kids and adults. Real kids games, like Disney INFINITY or Skylanders are not popular with adults.

Nintendo does make a real series of games aimed at kids, it's called Paper Mario and /v/ fucking despises it.

Honestly the only reason you guys dont find this argument valid is because you are mostly all manchildren.
I disrespect all of you, because this board is full of toxic and unhealthy people who's only hobby or lifestyle is endless video games. You don't work, or at least have a productive passion. None of you probably have a outlet or some activity that lets emotion out. You just fill any void you have with "vidya". You spend what money you have to buy some happiness.

If you worked, and had some outlet or productivity in your lives, when you come home you just wanna relax. You want some fun, like sex or banter, and nintendo games are "fun". No pressure, bing bing, play with some friends. Pixar films are comfy and fun, Moe anime like Kyoani or SoL anime, are fun. They are our play, we don't want emotional outlets and life changing games that redefine us.
We want fun.

Truly only manchildren are tired of kiddy shit because you play it all the time, and find comfort in games that have adult themes, to give you meaningless life some momentary adult worth. The fact that so many games are "kiddy" and seem babyish is your insecurities projected outwards through shitposting. Fun shit doesnt appeal to you because you are broken as a person, you want it to "help" you or make you "cope" with yourself.
But it can't. Because it's just "fun". SO you call it "kiddy".

Go fuck yourselves, all of you. Fix your lives and appreciate fun is enough in a game.

Just because a game has blood in it doesnt mean its made for adults.

Try playing a game with more than 12 key binds some time. Try playing a game where 50 key binds doesnt feel enough. It has nothing to do with graphics or story. its all about mechanics.

City management games are a totally different kind of experience from life simulation games like Animal Crossing.

I also laugh at the idea more complexity in entertainment is inherently better. That's a really childish way to think. The point of entertainment is to release dopamine in the brain, only children think it's super deep. If you want to learn, read non fiction.

Toys are toys sure but then again some toys are made for kids and some are made for adults, But also some toys are made for people of all ages to enjoy. None of that changes the fact that a toy is meant to be something that fun can be had with.

But then yes are also kinda of right since there are all kinds of toys out there some bigger and more expensive than others. Its all about taste and sadly budget at times really. So a lil kid with not much pocket change can buy a lil red toy car but then when he gets older he finally afford a big ass super car to play around with if he is to be fortunate enough to afford it all.

Some can have fun with small lil almost cute things while other may not be able to and need big and cool expensive shit to enjoy themselves. Does not change the fact that a toy is a toy meant to have fun with. no matter the price. No matter the size.

Your post assumes that a majority of adults that "like fun" in the context of movies and vidya will ONLY watch movies or play vidya that are "fun" as if you can't have fun, have something intellectually stimulating, or have something that can be both fun and intellectually stimulating.

unlike in film and television, games do not have an upper echelon of intellectually stimulating content
