You can't debunk this. If video games are art, then they should also be political, and be judged based on their politics.

Correct.
Then the rest of this retarded chain of logic crumbles.
They're still trying to shove in control through the back end by titilating midwits who couldn't cut it in real art and instead settled for digital toys as their medium by suggesting that toys are "art" and thus giving them something resembling "respect" and "cred" in the art world.
Again and again, the useful midwit idiots who can't do shit are the ones who end up sabotaging the whole thing at the behest of people with agendas, in this case, social engineering and propaganda.

Yeah, okay I agree. That doesn't mean any given analysis is worth a shit, including yours. No, most of it is worthless. If someone made a thesis on the works of Tolkien, citing text from his books, recorded quotes and letters written by the man himself while also taking his background into account and you claim that's just as valuable as some random on twitter saying "Frodo and Sam are gay" then you can piss off. You can give your "critical analysis" all you want, just don't expect it to be taken seriously if it's some baseless shit. Which these days it mostly is.

How does recognizing something isn't art cause it to "destroy the work"? That's like saying not recognizing manual labor as an artform means that the work is pointless.

It is entirely in keeping with the whole spirit of totalitarianism that it condemns any human activity done for its own sake and without ulterior purpose.
Science for science' sake, art for art's sake, are equally abhorrent to our totalitarian intellectuals.
*Every* activity must derive its justification from a conscious social purpose. There must be no spontaneous, unguided activity, because it might produce results which cannot be foreseen and for which the plan does not provide.
It might produce something new, undreamt of in the thinking of the planner.
The principle extends even to games and amusements. I leave it to the reader to guess whether it was Germany or in Russia where chess-players were officially exhorted that "we must finish once and for all with the neutrality of chess. We must condemn once and for all the formula 'chess for the sake of chess' like the formula 'art for art's sake'."

>>719629304
Anita did not say this. She said that Hitman chose to set a level in a strip club with plenty of opportunity to ogle the strippers backstage and even great opportunities to catch some alone and take them out so you can ragdoll them. She didn't bring the scoring system into it - although it should be noted that hiding the body negates the score penalty.
>>719628217
I won't even dignify this one with a response
>>719627947
Anita has gone on record to say that criticising everything as racist and sexist is a mistake for overzealous amateurs and that serious critics pick their battles (this was heavily quotemined to have her say "everything is racist and sexist"). She also asked for only a moderate sum to finance her youtube video and expanded the scope after the response was overwhelming.

To say nothing of Thunderfoot's embarrassing attempt at literary criticism.
>>
>>719631336
And I'm saying that is precisely why A.I. cannot handle this.
To claim "nothing is unforseen" is to invoke a Laplacian demon.
The one thing it *cannot* see is conscious, meaningful choices.
i.e. humans with meaningful activities going about their business.
A.I. cannot understand; it can only follow an algorithm. A ruleset.

So what it cannot "foresee" is future developments of society.
That requires an entrepreneur.

I know you're evoking a communist social credit concern.
I'm saying that, even with that system (which needs to be squashed wherever it crops up), social planners cannot plan anything.

It's been explained time and time again and I argued in this way previously on /v/ to many baffled /v/tards. Videogames can't be art, they're not included in the definition of art, and you can't change the definition of art however it suits you (that's not what serious people do).

Both a lie and a lie by omission. The player isn’t “meant” to do something that there is no reward for. Saying you’re meant to do something implies that the game rewards you for it, it can mean nothing else. The lie by omission is that you can “desecrate” the bodies of male victims just as easily.

Video games aren't art, but they have art inside of them.
>>
>>719633740
The biggest problem with the "videogames are art" argument is that it relies on an all too lofty and exaggerated definition of what "art" is. The presence or lack of a deeper meaning or significance or the ability to evoke emotion are usually the focal point of why games can or cannot be art, but if you were to apply this same definition to paintings or sculptures, you could easily bring some of the most famous pieces into the same realm of questioning, such as the Mona Lisa.

Source? I'm trying the hardest to find any evidence of a semantic change of art on Internet. Sounds like you're full of shit. I'm even inclined to believe you're a dirty motherfucker because relativism or sophistry is the way of the grifters.
>>719634532
Yes, this is almost an ethical problem. Interestingly enough, I was able to find a paper on the existence of neurological pathways for the perception of art in present times (with photos and paintings) but nothing that would suggest redefining art as a concept, just that different people process art differently.
People mess with forces beyond their understanding.

Yes, it is a work of oikophobic, post-modernist ideological subversion; and its success is the first victory flag of the gaming hobby and industry being colonized (could also be described as "infected") by oikophobic, post-modernist ideological subversives, just like Robert "Toby" Fox.

That is the big difference, isn't it?
"I don't like this, I'll be very vocal about how I don't like this and definitely won't buy it, and recommend other don't buy it as well"
vs
"I don't like this, therefore it should not be allowed to exist"
are two very different positions to hold.
If video games are art, then they are a form of political expression and can be criticized on that level. But political expression is a form of speech that can't be silenced in a free country.

Examples of not art in museums?
I don't understand how you don't understand either sorry.
To explain the point further, in the simplest terms: art is the thing by which aesthetic feelings are experienced, minus the interactivity. On top of that, the writer of the blog post mentions how games are primarily a marketed product which I personally didn't acknowledge before.
Or you're mistaking the entry fee of a museum with a business endeavor, which it is not.
I'm not sure man, it's a skill issue on your part.

Art is the medium by which aesthetic feelings are experienced. Aesthetic feelings are the perception of beauty as the representation of perfection. Perfection means you can't touch this shit.

>Video games are art
Correct. All expressions of human creativity is art, from marble sculptures and snazzy chapels to childrens' scribbles to reality TV. That doesn't mean all art is good or worth looking at, though.
>Subject to critical analysis
If you mean looking at it based on craftsmanship and design? That's always been done.
But no "modern art" is subject to criticism. It's all upper middle class liberals jerking each other off. And classical art has always been old=good. Any anime chick on a floating city on pixiv fantasia is objectively a hundred times more technically skillful than the Mona Lisa.
Video games are uniquely subject to "criticism" in the form of "this objectifies women therefore it sucks" in a way no other art form is. Because, naturally, gamers are the most oppressed group of people.

Not an argument. You have no rebuttal.

You avoided engaging with this fact because you have no answer. All future responses will be met with the word “paper”, since that’s all that is needed to utterly rape you.

By that being entirely untrue.
It was two or three articles with a similar viewpoint - inspired by the, at that time, weeks-long raging outrage - which were then picked up and reblogged by a handful of others over the course of the following week. Yeah, no shit an article saying "go read this article about the ongoing controversy" is saying the same thing as the article it links to. But it's not adding anything.
Basically, you're baffled by journos having RSS feeds and your one-track mind immediately jumped to "this is proof of a conspiracy"

>Perfection means you can't touch this shit.
In other words art is a physical manifestation of ideal perfection. By defintion you can't do anything with it. The moment the notion of interaction with an object comes into play it ceases being art and becomes an object primarily defined by its function.
For example: videogames. Their primary function is playing, therefore they're not art. Other example: a chair, nice chair, pretty artful chair, nice shape and everything, now you sit on it it ceases being art.

I'm not even showing a high power level here this is the most basic platonic philosophy that's been criticised and expanded upon during more than 2000 years. But the concept remains the same. You take a literal schizo like Deleuze, he uses the exact same defintion of art to build his schizoanalysis.

I agree with the top guy though. If I was an avid sportsball fan, and some turtleneck faggot told me that sportsball isn't art, is that supposed to make me mad? Surprised? Is it even supposed to make me think for a moment? No. Video games are games. Games motherfucker. The games might have art IN them. The visuals, the audio, the narrative. However, you can still have something that has basically none of those things still technically be a "video game". Because of this simple technicality, I maintain that the concept of "video games" are, by definition, not art. They may have varying degrees of art within them.

It's a means to an end. Not a separate issue. A contingent of /v/ wants to get rid of blacks in games. So they think that banning jews and minorities is the way you go about it.

To add, they also wants Sony to move back to Japan and away from California.

I doubt you'll still accept what I say, because to you "banning games" is a specific thing that I'm not addressing. But I ask you this: How does one actually go about banning games.

a computer is a program. You can take that program and plug it into any sufficient hardware and have it run fine.
You cannot do the same with a human. The computer takes a cartesian stance.
Human activity takes a non-cartesian stance, therefore perception itself is drenched in meaning.
it cannot be reduced to a set of mathematical equations; where all we need to do is follow the set of equations.
Calculation isn't innately in nature; the Turing test is a behavioral test. Behaviorism rejects the idea that people really do have beliefs and desires; we are all just being socially conditioned by external pressures. It leads to a contradiction wherein behaviorism has to rely on the notion of beliefs/desires to explain human behavior.

Simply put, you cannot derive semantics from syntax.
A.I., by definition, only has syntax.
Humans are creatures which have content to their thoughts, therefor engage in meaningful activities. There is a semantics to what we do. That semantics is related to our first-person perspective.

On a deeper level, there is no "modelling" going on when we engage with the world. This is, in particular, dreyfus's point. It is an attack on the cognitivism of the modern era (mostly propagated by Chomsky/Fodor/Kripke - who think they can avoid the question of semantics; semantics magically pops up in sufficiently complex syntactical systems).
There is a litany of tacit knowledge with every activity we do, of which cannot be formalized in any type of algorithmic system. You are always operating within some tacit knowledge system.
This tacit knowledge is a network of our beliefs/skills/intuitions/traditions of which are missing from the cartesian picture.
It is, roughly speaking, the social division of labor and leads to the market as a discovery process.

They go to the government and say "games with this should not be made, make restrictions about this." Which has happened. Anita went to both congress and the fucking UN to say as much.

Banning something is not saying "I will not buy a game with X in it" banning something is asking the government to ensure that a game with X cannot be made.

Something I don't see a lot of people talk about anymore is not only has she been extremely vocal about how sexualization of women and damsels in distress are bad and should ultimately be "avoided", she's also criticized gun violence in video games as well and said that gun violence is toxic masculinity which reinforces and glorifies harmful male behavior.

The government isn't the only one with the authority to ban a thing. As we are seeing with the recent payment processor issues.
A ban can happen on many different levels of authority. By anyone who has the ability to control what you have access to. For example, Game Stop doesn't carry Adult games. (Rated A using the ESRB age rating) This effectively means that adult games are "banned" from Game Stop. What is to stop someone like Anita with enough influence to go around to other storefronts and convince them to ban Adult rated games from their stores?

This is essentially what /v/ desires to do. By controlling the hire institutions, they can control what content is allowed to be produced and sold.

You can't be older than 17 and actually believe that fantasy should be homogeneous. If you actually read old fantasy stories, then you would know they often featured people of different ethnicities existing within the same space. I just finished the "Magician" books by Raymond E. Feist. It came out in 1982. That was before even I was born. And it features a kingdom that is surrounded by nations of different races. The main antagonists are actually a feudal Asian inspired kingdom that crosses over a spacial rift to invade them. The war drags on for years, and prisoners of war are turned into servants and even given new lives in the kingdom they were once attempting to invade. A contingent of the invaders are left behind, and become settlers within the kingdom's boundary. Thus, as the years go on, these two people become more and more integrated, sharing cultures.

Half of the books take place on the other side of the rift. As some of the kingdom's people get taken as slaves on the invader's side, and live there for years.

Of course you would know this already if you actually read fantasy, instead of pretending to be a fan of the genre in order to build up a false sense of authority.

No, it just took a really long time to travel, so most people didn't. But there wasn't actually any explicit law against people of different races from integrating into the kingdom. When the prisoners of war were integrated into society, it wasn't an issue of whether or not they're the correct race. But whether or not they could be trusted, or if their loyalties still lie with the land of their birth.

But more so, like I said, those two different people started integrating once they settled close to each other. Within only a decade or so, there are a lot of intermingling. The story in the book spans over the decades, so we actually get to see that in the story.

>>719641684
The foreigners were actually initially distrusted, because their movements were mysterious. As at the time, the main characters didn't know about the rift crossing magic. They didn't understand how these people were moving about. When they convened, they concluded that their motions are similar to that of a scouting party, just before an invasion. So their initial distrust came from from their strange action, not their race.

The kingdom were in fact invaders. So they went to war before even knowing who each other were. So again, distrust built upon action, not race.

Also, because they ended up integrating anyway, it doesn't really matter that they initially distrusted each other. They learned how to be friendly. If the story happened to take place 2 decades later than it did, then the narrative would not include the war and all that. It would begin with a Kingdom that is mostly white, but with a large minority of Asians mixed in.

this makes sense only if you believe that "sexualization is inherently bad" which I do not. sexualization has its place and there's no reason a character can't be both sexy and capable or any other positive trait. saying

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh....

I don't like the argument that "all art is political" because the question of whether all art is political is more complicated than one would think because it really depends on what you consider "political". The whole thing really took off when new online lefties wanted to push back against anti-wokies bitching about games being "political", but it falls flat because they don't realize anti-wokies have a different perception of what is and isn't "political". It's why saying "MGS is political" doesn't work with them since you can just say "well, it's not political in the way I dislike" given their belief in what is "political" is "woke" shit like women or minorities in games, especially those in AAA slop.

Like, when annoying online lefties say that everything about art is political, right down to even apolitical stuff being political because of the circumstances or implicit beliefs of the creators or society, it's just way too broad and reductive. It's basically asking for someone to throw a gotcha question like "Well, is pong political then?" The people who push the "all art is political" angle are just annoying and naive, and it's not as big of an issue in film - well, outside mainstream IP shit like the MCU. Film directors and creators there tend to have a way better understanding and appreciation of art beyond "is/is not political", and focus their films on other aspects of life and don't limit theirselves to that frame of thinking. There's stuff that's obviously political in the "government plot/thriller/current events" sense, which is what my definition of political is, though I don't care much for the "women and minorities in media" view of political.

Art isn't inherently political, you can interpret it as such while others can not

One of the best trends on social media, is people going to art galleries, and taking photos of themselves standing next to pieces they think they can make. So the videos will be a slide show of them standing next to a bunch of trash art. And then the comment sections is divided. Half the people are laughing their asses off. The other half are upset that they're disrespecting their art. And so of course people are arguing in the comments about good and bad art. I love seeing modern art advocates get angry and shat on.

Bro Konami focus tested Japanese school girls and they said they don't like playing as old men so they made Raiden to appeal to the fujoshi.

Good video games historically have been about combat, or the stick as Kojima puts it. With the exception of death stranding.
Just because I'm playing as William Adams in Nioh who is subordinate to a historically oppressive Shogun doesn't mean it's somehow not fun and I am automatically complicit in this system, you fucking retard. Power fantasy, emphasis on the fantasy is the MO for good vidya because it justifies the gameplay. It in no way has to feflect my real life values. I've never stolen a a car but enjoy GTA.

true enough, but there's a reason for that, and it's simply that sarkeesian's brand of extremism is more socially acceptable and therefore palatable to the masses. whatever you think about white nationalism, you can't deny that it's exclusionary to anyone but whites, and that's not something the powers that be can sell to the general population, when so many of them aren't white.

that, and of course, if you want to be brutally honest, any sort of racial supremacy is founded upon hatred of the "other" and that sort of thing only begets eventual violence and bloodshed, which are antithetical to the healthy functioning of any society.

ANY sort of supremacy leads to violence and bloodshed as an eventuality. Just because current egalitarian progressive society lacks a racial supremacist mindset doesn't mean there isn't supremacy going on. I've witnessed so-called peaceful progressives making the most bloodthirsty, genocidal statements possible towards other countries for resisting the expansion of their ideology within their own sovereign borders, to the point such self-righteous mouthbreathers are absolutely convinced a thermonuclear exchange can be won.

They are not built different, it's just a new group of supremacists seeking to impose their way on the world. As it has been for all of fucking time. It's tiresome.

People are capable of holding irrational and contradictive ideas. The human psyche isn't big on perfect logic unless you actively try. The entire strategy of western civilisation since the end of WW2 has been to impose itself on as much of the world as possible, regardless of the actual will of the peoples it claims to want to save from despotism and tyranny, while ironically classifying its own dissident elements who should presumably under an egalitarian model have a say in how things are done as an "other" and therefore an enemy to be neutralised.

Sure, and just like any critique of art it is subjective and I don't have to give a fuck. Five Guys is correct about this and it doesn't hurt anything.

you're incapable of arguing the point without trying desperately to bring it down to a personal level, how sad
face it, your themes are actually shittier than the ones you criticise and you're admitting it by just saying you turn your brain off and develop myopia where all you care about is the shit you see right now
actual brownoid high time preference train of thought

Poor poor miss Anita i wonder what she is thinking right now now that He has returned to the White House and it's becoming more apparent she is at least partially responsible for all of this. Not that it matters because it's too late to do something about it. I just thought it was funny that America became a fascist state all because of a single blog post. Like that's crazy. Someone must have colossally fucked up here.

We should commit damnatio memoriae on everything Marx and his followers ever made. It's the only way to truly kill an idea, by destroying every last trace of it so none can ever be infected again.

I also advocate for nuking the shit out of South America, the largest nest of commies rn. I don't care if I burn too, better dead than red.

>turn your brain off
Already addressed
Interacting with and completing good vidya is the ploar opposite.
Shaming a player for daring to play the game is jewish and your vaunted war is le bad Toby fox shit is elementary m night shalamayan shit for mid wits
No shit war us bad, I'm not fighting for Jews and their neocon agendas ever, or fucking peace loving democrats that love drone striking too
I do enjoy however good game play and the majority of good game play is combat in one form or another, because outside kojima and a few others like 1st playthrough of subnautica or a good racing game no one has made a compelling pacifist game
I've btfo every point you've made and you've made no counter points at all
Take your own advice, or just rehash brown and "turn your brain off" again as I suspect.

>you are being shamed by... the game not worshipping you and giving you the best ending for mindlessly attacking and killing obviously sapient enemies

What makes Undertale 'demoralizing'?
Spec Ops is definitely demoralizing, but it's demoralizing to people who want to send our boys off to die in foreign countries so we can feel like the world's policeman, some I'm fine with them looking down at that sort of ideology.
Spec Ops is also a decent game, so if you like the genre, it's worth playing just to see what the fuss is all about.

>best ending
Spoken like a true storyfag
Also, my favourite game if all time which i listed earlier, is Shin Megami Tensei V Vengeance, which if you know anything about the series, blows your argument entirely out of the water. There is no "best ending". You use demon's callously as tools without attachment, or you don't, and keep the same ones throughout the game. You pick hopefully an ending that resolves things according to what you believe, but no guarantees. This is at the cost of the life of one or more of your high school friends. Do you side with YHWH and enforce order and restrict personal freedom to 0? Do you side with Lucifer and grant absolute freedom at the cost of might making absolute right now? This is just 2 of 6 endings. SMTV Vengeance has all the shit you've been claiming Toby fox does (as well as the opposite too for true narrative freedom) but without just being basic bitch shit. You really need to play more than 1 (now 2) games and it really fucking shows given the fact you only defend 1 mediocre subversion twist, can't counter argue and won't cite any other works.
You're a fraud

>I'm a story first fag who can't argue
We know.
Note that I said vengeance, where every dialogue choice matters in the xenon of vengeance.
Too hard for you?
I bet you watched the pacifist runs of your beloved Toby fox shit on YouTube

"Serious critical analysis" from a very specific point of view and focusing on the same aspects with the same criticisms and arguments, over and over, where it is assumed that everyone involved should see things the same way
>>
>>719653842
>dialogue choice
you're jerking off a game splitting itself off into a vn and a jrpg because you can't comprehend them combined
>>
>>719653421
You're missing out
>>
>>719653981
You literally know nothing about the game, or video games as a whole really
Your thinking of Persona retard
There is no VN in smt.
SMTV is 90% gameplay, as it should be, defining the medium as it does and you get dialogue choices sprinkled throughout that determine an ending which does not glaze the actions of your character AT ALL. Each ending has implications far greater than just "killing bad" like your deviant art slop game, although it includes that too. It has literally defining the entire ideology and power structure of the world going forward and the implied consequences, not just "Lol don't kill anyone this time around tee hee"

Try actually playing games other than foxslop. Your ignorance is astounding

if it's good, it's art
if it's bad, it's modern art

I legit think you don't actually play video games
Like you watched 1 youtu.be video by some fucking ignorant zoomer like you on why Undertake having a pacifist route is somehow groundbreaking and evocative of "the rich profit from war, the poor die in it" like it's novel.
