JWill93 -> A mature artistic medium? (5/26/2014 11:37:31 PM)

I have seen prejudice against this form of media and I have to say I am tired of this prejudice. Video games are a mature artistic medium! Does this medium has to cater only to kids? I like works of art and yes that includes video games that cover serious adult issues like war, genocide, politics, love, sex, etc with maturity. Comic books are now covering serious topics.

What ideas do you have in mind to help the video game medium mature?

How do we make video games a more respected medium? A lot of people think games are a waste of time.

People are going to think what they want to.

No need to change to please them or for them to change their feelings
to match yours.

Be secure enough to have your own likes regardless of what others think.

+1 @ what Flipperwash states.

No need to become activists, for what, because we are being discriminated against??? This is not an issue of any importance.

I am getting the feeling that there is possibly an underlying message that folks are trying to get across?

I do hope I have got my wires crossed.

1. Stop caring about respect of non-gamers.
2. Better mechanics.
3. Accepting defeat as a valid result of a game.

The same people are usually into alcohol and less legal drugs.
