Are video games art?
Are video games art?
No, and they never will be. You can always spot a faggot by his desire for video games to be taken seriously. Same thing with film.
more like fart
Literally anything can be art depending on the individual's perspective. You can never say that something isn't art just because you don't like it.
Art is subjective, and considering video games tend to be the product of tons of artist, coders, etc. I'd say yes, it's definitely art in my opinion.
Yes, but I’ve seen literal garbage get passed as modern “art”. So by that logic OP just about anything is art. Something something if it brings any emotions it’s art
apparently the modern definition of art is anything that makes you feel emotions, so as long as you aren't emotionless during a video game, it's art
depends on your definition of art
You can objectively play video games incorrectly. I can fiddle with the menu for the same amount of time someone can beat the same.
They aren't art. They can contain beautiful drawings, images, even writing, but there's too many people involved for it to be a singular, unified vision.
Never ever.
then what about games with a single developer who does all the programming, art, etc.?
It'll never be a singular unified vision because of the player being a required aspect.

some are and some are entertainment
just like movies
Gameplay is a legitimate artform.
So are films not art either?
No, and they weren't seen as art for a very long time. It wasn't until the critic revolution did a very small group of people convince people movies were the sole intended vision of the director.
Nowadays with films storyboarding action scenes before the script is finished or a director is hired we can obviously see it isn't true at all.
If a woman shoving spaghetti-Os into her pussy is art then Killing Floor 2 is definitely art.
the audience is a factor in all mediums, the audience can misunderstand or fail to interpret things properly
Movies are also worked on by many people, though. Video games can have a singular, unified vision through the director
Define art
They are an experience, they are made of art.
Yes.
Of course they are you retard, always have been. They're more art than movies because lots of games are made by a single person, and no movies are.
Someone can also listen to music and watch movies incorrectly if they're a retard like you.
For instance:
>Guy with DVD immediately starts film
>Guy with VHS is still rewinding
>WTF HE'S ALREADY WATCHING THE MOVIE THAT MEANS THEY AREN'T ART
Nothing is art.
Define "art", retard.
Interaction isn't a factor in all mediums you sniveling little retard. Movies and video games are not art for different reason.
That's fiddling with the mechanics of something unrelated to the movie you moron. That's one of the worst comparisons I've ever seen.
Video games can have artistic elements, but can not be art itself.
...
No, video games are toys, not art.
Depends on the definition. Give me a definition of "art" and I will tell you.
anything made by human hands/minds is art. whether or not that art is "good" or "bad" is an entirely different story.
Yes, and anyone who says otherwise is a contrarian retard rallying against an invisible, nonexistent boogeyman.
241 replies guaranteed, but yes, obvious and over 9000 years old old bait discussion
anyone who says no is a fucking brainlet
Not only are you wrong, you brought up Zig Forums when no one else did. Great job.
