Games Fail Fundamentally - GFF instead of BFF
By momentarylogic 2 Comments
So I just wanted to point out that games fundamentally fail.
Because of one singular thing that is rarely brought up, in comparison to film. Film, in comparison to games, are divided by only by the genres with which they are representatives of. Games however, are critisized (sp) by the way in which they allow the player to control the action. Either by 1st person shooter, turn-based rpg, etc. For example.
So, essentially.... games have more problems than film (with regard to respect), out of the sheer fact that perspective isn't entirely assured. Think about a film critic, who spends his/her entire day, studying a (mostly, and almost exclusively) singular perspect art-form. It is a great idea, but a terrible one considering what a video game offers those that decide to take a chance in something entirely unsure. Think of it.
It seems really simple, but it isn't. Which is a fundamental problem, and quite liberating - all in the same turn. Get it?
