Link in red color, you aspie fuck. Games are for nerds, we only listen to hip-hop here, yo.

The Dark Souls of music would be some shitty nu-metal band or something.
>>63331495
fuck i love this album
>>63331495
Dark souls is usually praised, and its quality isn't really argued about that much, but TMR is such a dividing album, loads of people love it, loads of people hate it.
>>63331495
No, it's music equivalent of this
Dark Souls is not poorly made at purpose.
BTW games are not an art so don't compare pls :)
>>63331653

You guys are cool.
If you're talking about works overhyped on their respective boards, then you'd be right.
>hailed as one of the greatest in the medium(agree about DS, TMR not so much)
>inaccesible

Checks out, but DS is a better game than TMR is an album

If you can't get into all the main forms of art, you're uncultured swine.
Any functioning adult should have a fondness for at least some instance of a medium.
If you don't enjoy any other forms of art, at least respect them as a medium. Regardless of your preference there will always be forms of art with digesting; whether it be film, art, photography, video games, literature.

What? I never did this, so are you just using cheap fallacies as damage control? Also: being a pleb and thinking Death Grips are bad is commonly synonymous.
>>63333786
>They deserve as much analysis and appreciation as literature, music, and visual artistry
strawman, I said respect.
>It's better to have entry level pleb taste in everything than in-depth knowledge on something you care about
You should at least have an understanding and respect for something you don't completely understand.
Most things that are renowned by critics have some merit to them.
>>63333858
You didn't even have an argument, you just responded with ad-hom.
>>63333858
i would have ur back on the artistic merit of video games
but you're such a goddamn autistic ferret it drives me insane
you sit here spitting about "enjoying all forms of at by just being entry level"
you trying to fuck with this, but my rhymes are hotter than the devil
i hesitate to use memes like fedora or neck beard
but your mentally is abhorrent and should be feared

I'm not even arguing so yet again you create false realities about my post to support your damage control.
An hero friend. You just went autismal on the whole thread. I was defending vidya by pointing out the insecurities of those ITT, but games aren't art, games are a medium of its own.

People don't seriously believe videogames are good art, right?
>>63331495
>both pieces of media have solid entertainment value but are vastly overrated by fans that insist it's niche
i guess
>>63333629
Video games shouldn't be considered art. That's the kind of bullshit that gets you stuff like Duchamp's Fountain or other elitist shit. Video games should be focused on fun only, and art as an after thought.
The Dark Souls of music is the Cryo Chamber label of dark ambient.
>video games
My top 3 favorite works of art are Candy Crush, Dark Souls and Hungry Hungry Hippos.
>>63334332
dark souls is a pretty great game in pretty much every category. It's kind of hard to compare a video game to a movie or an album, but Dark Souls is arguably the best interactive media that's been made. Even if you're only surface level with understanding games, the visual design is pretty insane for a major big budget video game.
It's pretty cheap, if you have any way of playing it I'd definitely give it a shot.
>>63332619
good man
Nah, that's Death Grips.

robin and i guess zelda on 4
>>63335374
lol its true
Death Grips or perhaps Bones fit the bill a lot better. Even similar surge in popularity and attracted faggotry, and both obnoxious fanbases claim that their shit is the sickest hardest shit around when everyone with half a brain know what bullshit all this shit is.
Do you guys hate games because of /v/ or is it because you are insecure fedoras?
>>63335444
Do you care? All this talk in the vein of "my forum is better than yours" is laughable anyway and got too old after all those years. Let newfriends have their fun.
>>63335374
This pretty much. Edgy teens think it's some avant garde work of art because it's grimdark and difficult for normies.

This post speaks the truth
Video games aren't art
>>63335776
Explain how an expression of human creativity that mixes multiple artforms (visual arts, music, writing) is not art, please.
>>63335884
because they are for children
>>63335927
>art can't be for children
here's the definition since you're a downie.
>The expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power:
>>63335927
(not true, by the way)
But assuming it was, are Dr. Seuss and Hayao Miyazaki not artists due to children being their primary audience?
Dark souls fuckin' sucks. I couldn't even finish the fuckin' tutorial and my gamer friend was having a laugh at me the whole time.
>>63331609
Mustard Fox and Caucasian Dong.
Video games are not a hobby you should be proud of having past a certain age, if only because it's socially unacceptable for adults to play them.
>>63335884
It has no artistic merit
>>63333786
How are videogames not art? Most of them are creative and express/evoke some sort of feeling.

music and videogames are both mediums of entertainment though
>>63339210
>art can't be entertainment
they aren't mutually exclusive
>>63337550
I agree, to some degree. It's definitely not socially acceptable to be 25 years old and playing a game for 6 hours straight like I did when I was 13.
But a lot of adults still play video games casually and with friends.

Of course video games are an art, if you sketch a dick into your notebook you can argue that its art. Whats debatable is whether they are a "high art", personnaly I think few are but some such as DS imo fit the description
>>63331609

>>63337868
Video games aren't art yet. Video games are still in the phase cinema had in the 1900's, 1910's. When people went to see short films just for the spetacle of the thing. That's video games atm...they simply want the player to go "wow" and nothing more.
Although Bioshock is perjaps the closest video game ever went to art.
>63333333
ignore please
>/mu/ says video games aren't art
>but hip-hop and rock music are
so retarded
Say what you will about video games, Katamari Damacy and Jet Set Radio's OST are great.
>>63343919
>bioshock
>perjaps the closest video game ever went to art
fuck you
>>63344222
Hip hop is as far from an art as video games are.
Can we define art please ?
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is like ten times more artistic than 95 percent of the music that gets discussed in most /mu/ threads.
>>63344496
Art is expression plus technique
>>63344511
>a meme game of thrones fantasy game
yeah real artistic
>>63344537
You don't alway need skills to make something look great right ?
Every person in this thread that has talked shit about video games is obviously underage, trying to sound like mature adults.
I am 22 and haven't played a game since I imported Demons Souls many years ago and I still don't see a reason to talk shit about video games.
kiddos
>>63344551
I personally believe in virtuous accidents
>>63344596
There are also some simple things that are still great, so in the definition "Art is expression plus technique" we could get rid of the technique, am I right ?
>>63344333
i actually dont play video games anymore but you're right, the jet set radio soundtrack is incredible, i grew up playing jet set radio future over and over and still can't get tired of how great the soundtrack is
>>63344610
A simple technique is still a technique. Expression on its own isn't really art if there is no method or meaning to it.
>>63344618
You always use a technique whil expressing yourself
>All this debate about video games being art
Tbh i just like to play Street Fighter or Tekken or something every now or then when i have nothing else to do.
>>63344657
Not really, sometimes untrained meaningless improvisation gets recognized as art and I kinda cringe
>>63344537
Then video games is art.
>>63344676
Art is not necesseraly something you like
>>63344686
Ok if this has devolved passed mutual respect so quickly for no reason then goodnight
>>63331495
Dark Souls is difficult and inaccessible yes, but it is also pretty and dark. Pic related is more appropriate as Dark Souls of music
TMR is abstract and has no dark appeal whatsoever. Its not even pretty in conventional sense and just plain stupid campy crap.
