No.

That city skyline is part of San Francisco isn't it?
>>285458892
But the majority of movies ARE porns
no, jonathan blow is a pretentious asshole who was told was very smart during school and never quite stopped believing it even after he developed severe mental retardation, the indie dev's disease

That silhouette is part of a gay man isn't it?
>>285459450
You tell me.
We'll technically if all movies were porn, and it was always like this, then wouldn't everyone just watch porn and not know any better. It would just be normal. Double Dildo Dudes 4 would be considered oscar bait. Normal movies would be outliers.
>wanna watch a movie? I got Fucktown, Rapenstein Monster, and Prehistoric Penis Predators.

Fuck him... I didn't even read whatever bullshit quote he posted I just looked at the image. Jon Blow is NOT Alfred Fucking Hitchcock
>>285458892
Most people see porn movies, though.
>>285458892
Tetris is porn
Galaga is porn
Call of duty is porn
Ys is porn
That's very sound reasoning
>cargo cult mentality
Who is a reasonable person? What is worth their time? How do we really know if something is worth one's time? What is meaningful? Is Blow a reasonable person with his high functioning autism?

lol
>>285458892
Man, I like Blow, but he comes off as a pretentious prick sometimes.
At least he keeps his mouth shut about the GG controversy and focuses on the things that really matters; THE FUCKING GAMES!
>>285460024

>>285458892
What exactly does he mean by games are porn?
>>285458892
people still watch porn in 2015

>>285460329
he means that every time you play a game you literally rape a woman
>>285458892
>that shot
Pretentious as fuck, no wonder Marcus Beer called them out for being hipsters.
>>285458892
He's right, nobody gave a shit about magic mike or 50 shades if grey.
>>285460329
They have women characters in them that aren't dressed in burkas.
I love how this guy lives his life assuming the majority of people don't watch porn.
>>285460230
All of them are intended to get a specific physical reaction out of your brain: releasing pleasure secreting hormones, just like porn. The end is the same. Where is the intellectual engagement?
>The majority of games are basically porn
I don't follow.
>>285458892
>pretentious tosser spouts pretentious bullshit
move along folks, nothing to see.
>>285460329
they're designed to make you feel good, and we sure as hell can't have that, ART must make you feel sad and guilty for your comsumerist western lifestyle
Extremely few games are porn or feature pornographic content. No games many people have actually heard of, except for Rapelay, and even that faded back into obscurity.
>>285460329
no fun allowed
>>285460516
>people like seeing movies because seeing movies doesn't make them feel good
it all makes sense now
>EVERYTHING IS PORN
Why are young liberals acting like old conservatives?
Why do stupid people voice their opinions on the internet. It's totally messing with other stupid people's heads that would listen to them without know they are listening to something stupid.
>>285460550
>they're designed to make you feel good, and we sure as hell can't have that
but that's what most movies do as well. Whether it's porn or an action movie or even a courtroom drama, movies can make you feel good when you see the guy you're rooting for win at the end.

>Telling other people to do his job for him because of MUH CULTUR

Man Blow turned out to be a one-trick pony and it's just disappointing.
>>285460525
Like porn, they're disposable; made to be played, beaten and tossed in the trash
The idea is that most games aren't made with any sort of staying power or depth in mind, you just play until you're bored and then leave
>>285460718
Depends on which movies. The average blockbuster is porn. The average Oscar bait is intellectually crafted to be an engaging dialogue about a particular topic.....according to a guy named BLOW
Did you like Braid, /v/?I did.
>>285460230
Braid is art
Gone Home is literature
Depression Quest is poetry
Mountain is meaningful

shut up you're making jonathan blowjob look bad you fucking misogynist
>>285460663
dunno about that, it seems that they've loads of fun on porn
most movies have sex scenes / nudity while most games dont

yes but the story was obscurantist garbage.
>>285459406
Underrated post, that's true.
thank god the japanese are still making "Porn" as he'd call it.
the ironic thing is, the Japanese were the first to make games with actual plots and characters and depth, but they STILL KEPT IN THE FUCKING GAMEPLAY, HOLY SHIT HOW HARD IS THIS.
THESE PRETINOUS FUCKS HAVEN'T MASTERED SOMETHING THAT WAS DONE BACK IN 2001 WITH FINAL FANTASY FUCKING NINE.
How come only people who dont know anything about video games get to comment on video games?
>>285460937
Wait so are saying most games are...shit?
>>285460941
It was an alright puzzle platformer. If you stripped the retarded story, it would still be fun.
>>285460959
And Tetris is better then all of them, and in the Smithsonian
google says dvd sales are about 20 billion a year
porn sales are 10-14 billion a year
this guy's an idiot
Wow, how much of an egotistical asshole do you have to be to say something that asinine?
>most people
>majority of games
>basically porn
>reasonable person
This is how you tell when someone's opinion isn't worth shit
Weasel words and value judgements, no substance

It's convenient how he gives no explanation for how games are basically porn. That makes very little sense. How are they basically porn? Is there a lot of graphic penetrative sex in video games? Jonathan Blow is a douchebag who made one game and has a very inflated sense of his importance because of it. He can fuck off.
>>285461607
> disposable porn
Methinks someone had shit tastes
>>285458892
Actually I think if every movie was a porno the movie industry would be more lucrative than the video game industry is currently.
The only problem would be that theater floors would be even more sticky than they already are.
>>285461636
He made one indie platformer game. Kind of ironic considering the way he talks about predictable, safe video games.
>>285458892
Here's a better quote: "If every movie was a Citizen Kane/Godfather-tier movie, most people wouldn't see movies. The majority of games are basically Transformers-tier, because that's where the money is." - Anonymous
His entire statement is just empty egotistic nonsense
>>285458892
everything that this silhouette of a person doesn't like
no one here is going to convince op that his opinions are shit and irrelevant in the actual enjoyment of games by others.

Holy fuck, why are they pushing this "VIDEOGAMES AREN'T FUN! STOP HAVING FUN!" bullshit so hard?

he's saying they are low brow without substance, and that he, and only people like him, can bring any culture to them.
forgeting the japanese have been giving us both high-brow story driven games, that also have good gameplay, for decades.
and the stories are far, far superior to the shit these indie fucks and bioware are pumping out.
>>285461460
only because of its historical precedent, it is of a outmoded design
>>285460756
Because the more extreme either ideology gets the more they start to look identical in application.
>>285460941
Puzzles were alright, on pair with some flash games I've played in the past.
Text boxes and story were retarded.
Also the moron that programmed it made one of the most basic mistakes you can do while programming the jumps.
Also I don't feel like the hand drawn graphic are well put together.
>>285462048
this is because the more extreme one gets, the closer one brushes against true insanity.
and insanity doesn't have politics, so they look the same.
we call that now going "full Mcintosh"
