Agreed.

People who build identities around their hobbies are literally autistic children sucking corporate cock hoping their efforts will get them a creamy reward from their shameless shilling.

Nintendo games are toys. Everything else is a unique medium of entertainment.

Games are games and toys are toys? You must be some fucking genius.

Games are not toys. A toy and a game can serve different purposes as well as serving similar purposes.

You're absolutely right.

video games are highly technical toys with lots of possibilities. They are built to be playable. (to have fun through the idea of interactivity)

They are not art.

As entertainment. You should expect to be able to play with them, more or less.

>>323917996
that isn't art, because as you can see it's built to be posable. In other words, something is already expected out of it. It's designed to be "fun".

Wrong.

kinography, literature and music don't have inherent restrictions, therefor they are absolutely capable of being art

try watching less flicks and movies
>>
>>323918363
Aren't these sorts of beliefs egoic pursuits too? Believing that you are nothing makes you something. The only way to truly be nothing is not to believe anything at all, but then you wouldn't be on a Rajastani Embroidery Collective trying to cure autism if you practice what you preach.

As opposed to video games, I assume you're saying, but that would be silly, right?

Video games is such an outdated term. They used to be toys and have evolved from that.

We should start calling it Software Entertainment

You're trying to apply conditioned paths of logic and rationality that doesn't necessarily apply to what I'm getting at. I don't have to acknowledge your rules on how the world works anymore than you have to mine. Your cultural projections are just that, projections.

There's no cure for autism. I'm just throwing my ideas out into the ether and if people read and consider it, cool. If they dont, cool. It doesn't matter either way. People are going to do what they do.

People who are into hunting are generally more autistic than any "gamer" I've ever met.

Shocking desu.

>>323919291
video games need to be built around being playable, theres an angle that aims to make the experience "fun" (depending on what the goal is) a certain level of pandering is a key element in the creation. The idea of a playability and interactivity is universal and objective.

if you shoot a film though, you don't have to worry about expectations though. You just film an empty water bottle for 3 hours and it will exist as a testament to itself. No one will give a shit. Maybe someone will? Maybe it will evoke something in someone? Who knows
>>
>>323918421
Are you trying to be satirical? This is also true. It's just a typically more sophisticated form of entertainment.

Sports, modern hunting, dance, running; It's all just for fun, really. These things, however, tend to have fringe benefits namely fitness that videogames lack, and are considered better for those fringe benefits.
>>
Video games are basically a less freeform lucid dream.

VR will be when they become something massive.

Reminder that OPa are just that- OPs. Faggots, whether adult or for children, are still faggots. This will never change no matter how much you make epic serious posts, they're still faggots and should be treated as such.

>>323919821
If you really thought it didn't matter, you wouldn't have done it. You did it because its an important part of your identity, that you are adopting a morally superior position on, which you are defending with a nebulous standard of logic. You're right though, anon, people are going to do what they do. We're a perfect demonstration of that.

Okay, anon. If someone sharing their thoughts on a matter is enough for you to construct an identity for them, then good on you. I can't say I share your perspective.
