Can video games be considered art?
videogames are software
Yes
>>724332803nope. all graphic artists rip off fantasy art as their "inspiration"
>can art be art?
looks cool but the entire level is just walking a small pretty linear path down some streets without much hidden or off the path stuff to find
>>724332885Those old fantasy artists probably ripped off something else
>did the artist do it for the love of the art without looking to be paid?if the answer is "no" then it's not art. its a product.
>>724332803wtf is this AI slop?
>>724332803Is chess art? Is football art? Is hide and seek art? What you're really asking is "are games art?".
>>724333086Videogames are more than just a set of rules like the other things you mentioned
>>724333175true, they're also a set of instructions
>>724332803Yes since art is everything so nothing is art. Art is a meaningless term and you can apply to everything if you are annoying enough people.
>>724332803digital drawing (art)digital sculpting/modeling (art)design (arguably an art)music (art)programming (a technical skill not an art)=video game (art) (the sum of many arts)
>>724333001Can't both things be true?
>>724333220And also writing, sound and visuals
>>724333086yes, yes, yes and yes
Yes. But only some.
>>724332885Every artist is inspired by something that already exists, art created from nothing doesn’t exist>>724333001>>724333284IMO, that, like in any other medium, depends on the specific work: did it come from a specific/authorial vision? Or did the creative side come from multiple faceless companies that didn’t want to "create" but just sell a safe product that maximized profit based on market analysis?
>>724333086>is football art?https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB1dXzVtbBtyi5C3v4TYNH3_jYT2fl91w
I'd say so
>>724332803According to /v/ yes.Officially no.
>>724333865You have, whether knowingly or unknowingly, arrived at the truth. Games are NOT art, but play is.
>>724332803yes, the fact that you can make vidya with soul or slop is proof it's art
>>724332803Poop is art.
>>724332803Yes
>>724332803/v/ always cries about artistic integrity when a female character's skirt gets lengthened by two pixels, so yes, videogames are art.
Video games (especially Japanese) are more art than shitty ghetto black music, Hollyslop movies or modern "art" paintings. Leftoid troon academia gatekeep the definition because they hate gamers.
Music = art3D modeling = artStorytelling = artPut that all into 1 package Suddenly Video Games ≠ art (?)
>>724332803They can but ironically the vast majority of players treat games like toys that have an expiry date past which the game is "too clunky" or whatever the fuck
>>7243362891. Who the fuck is this2. The second picture doesn't lure you to the seated corpse, it's effectively unreachable and pointless. Just there for aesthetic.
>>724334476those are the artists in this analogy, retard
>>724333001You've disqualified the Sistine Chapel
>>724333258All arts are applied skills.
>>724334442You got that the wrong way around
>>724332803Yes but so could the shit stains on my toilet bowl.
>>724336094It's rather the "gamers" who resist the label because they associate it with leftist troon academia.
>>724332803 Not Dark Souls 3 though that's for sure lmao
