Can video games be art?
How are the stories that kojima writes any less art than a novel?
>>340455701
Yes.
Why is this subject so controversial?
>>340456517
Pretentious fucks want to sneer at gamers, gamers don't want to be sneered at.

Better question: When do we get a new bit.trip? Runner 2 was fun but I haven't heard anything from the devs since then.

If you've never actually read a book, then I could see how you'd think Kojima actually knows what he's doing.
>>340456517
Because a lot of people tend to go too far in one direction. Either a game is art or it's a game, according to some people, when there's plenty of ways to have both fun gameplay and all the ART you want.OP's image is a good example of doing it right.
>>340456957Never because CV is dead.
A video game is literally one platform that showcases multiple forms of art.
>>340456517
It's called a bait thread
>>340456957
Never. The whole series represents CommanderVideo's life, from birth to death.
The Bit.Trip is complete.
>>340457210
Here we fucking go.
>>340457360
That doesn't answer anything.
It's only effective bait because the subject is controversial.

Shitty art is still art, brah.
inafter fags that conflate 'art' and 'fine art'
>>340457627
What is "fine art"?
>>340457421
I mean, to be fair, they did manage to do Runner 2 by pulling some interdimensional bullshit.
They could always just have, like, "Nega-Commander who didn't blow himself the fuck up" be the star of any future games.

Anything can be art.
Shit in a jar can be art.
The real question is "if a videogame is art, does that make it a good videogame?"
Can "artistic merit" be enough to make a game good, even if the gameplay isn't?
>>340457462
Fair point.
>>340457781
Art that pretentious elitists enjoy.
