You're Wrong. Video Games Are Not Art. by
Peeb (Aka: How to get Moriarty angry.)

(00:00) I can see why the creator said his voice wasn't AI, this video is retarded enough to be. This guy just hurts my soul. 

- The Critical Drinker & MarcTheCyborg leave, Moriarty & Nicholas Deorio join
"If something is not considered art, that isn't a slight against it"
"You'll notice I used the word film there instead of movie"
"Arma is obviously a sim. It attempts to replicate reality. Mario is an arcade game."
"I cannot name one instance of a game that meets that criteria. (to be art)"

*Discussion* what can actually be art and what would actually fit in his triangles
"That's why chasing the label of art is so disastrous for video games."
"
It's storytelling and its interactivity are firmly separated where it's really just a film interspersed with gameplay. I enjoy Metal Gear immensely, but these are two mediums at odds with each other, not a harmonious whole."
"I think the most convincing argument I could make off the top off my head would be Halo 2. (To be art)"

*Discussion* what can qualify, why does his argument constantly change?
"If we're going to evaluate video games artistically, their biggest issue is insecurity over the very fact that they are video games."
"The reason games have yet to become art, I would wager, is because they are made by people who want you to call them artists, but who are"

 

(~7:15:00 - ~10:20:00Checking out some possible plot leaks of Avengers: Doomsday and checking out the latest trailer + a lot of other cringe

- Theo & Weekend Warrior leave, DarkHour & Nerdrotic join

(00:00) Which of the following could be true?...

  • May focus around Multiverse Incursions, that would allow many crazy and exciting things to happen

  • The MCU and Fox X-men universe have interfered with the multiverse too many times through their 'adventures', it is now in jeopardy. We begin in the Raimi universe​.

  • Tobey's spiderman is fighting the Fox X-men universe as Wolverine has a Multiverse Bomb (TM, I bet)

  • Both universes will be destroyed unless one wins

  • The fight will conclude with Wolverine having to sacrifice himself in order to blow up Raimi's universe

  • The X-Men mourn Wolverine and casually mention the Fox Storm and Jean Grey died off screen 'saving' other universes

  • Dr Doom will play the friendly character for half the film

  • He explains that the Fantastic Four universe is going to explode because there is someone there who shouldn't be, turns out to be Steve Rogers!, he was actually saved by Loki when he was going through the timelines.

  • Steve has been there 10 years, watching the Fantastic Four fight and that his son (he has a son now) loves them

  • Space is beginning to break in the MCU universe, Loki's daughter Love has a vision on death and space crisis.. and is sent to get the Thunderbolts

  • Everyone meets at Avengers tower and everyone has a chat, before they notice all 3 universes are going to clash into each other soon and kill everyone! Oh no!

  • Reed Richards has a proposal to save them: they will build Multiversal Cannons that will separate the universes and save everyone, Simple!

  • ​But they need to collect advanced tech to make it, in places like Wakanda!

  • Steve and Thor travel to the TVA as he has an access card from Loki

  • The X-Men and Avengers have a big 'ol fight when they meet, until Monia enters the fight and orders them to stop, Black Girl Magic!

  • Back at the TVA, Loki says Dr Doom stole his powers and now he is unstoppable :O, His plan is to destroy everything and make the perfect universe

- Nutsa leaves, DarkHour & Kelesto joins

  • Dr Doom activates Sentinels, and the X-Men mansion gets blown up!​

  • Yelena gets injured OH NO, which sets off Bob who kill all the sentinels

  • Back at castle doom, Dr Doom decides to tell his backstory to his now prisoner Steve, He fell in love with an alternate Sue Storm and had a kid, but incursions happen and he accidently kills her and his child!! Now he is jealous it didn't happen to Steve, Doom then kills Steve's kid in front of him, we also see Dr Strange and Wanda now work for Doom as his witches btw (he was captured when trying to stop clashes between other universes)

- Uno joins

  • ​All the characters arrive at castle doom, while Thor asks Odin for help, while Sue says she's pregnant again, warriors from Valhalla arrive with favs such as Jane Foster, Heimdall, and others!

  • ​A big battle erupts against Doom-Bots, they win, HOWEVER, Dr Doom had already snuck outside of the multiverse, and he kills everything, but then creates Battleworld, makes Sue his wife and steals a child.......

  • ​Doom brings back all the heroes and places them in the world with no memories. What a sneaky villain!

  • Except!! In the Post Credits. We discover Tobey's Spiderman, Wolverine, Tom Holland's Spiderman and the Young Avengers remember EVERYTHING. DUN DUN DUNNNN!​

"You have the non-classical ways to discover the world"

"You kind of have to throw away everything you know about writing"

"It really is every week now, Isn't it"
"The next target is the upcoming Wolverine game because I guess they're not happy with the tutorial mission" 

​*Discussion* Tutorials just never end these days & tutorials that are decent
"It's a repeatable and predictable pattern to the point that when any game is about to be released, you can pinpoint the things they'll focus on before they even start making posts about it."
"Can you imagine being in an art gallery showing off the work you're proud of? And while you got some excited fans appreciating it, you also got a bunch of people just screaming slurs, insults, and whatever mush that comes out of their brains at you."
"These outrage mobs use criticism as a shield, but have no genuine criticism of the art they're supposedly engaging with. They don't criticize what they're playing."

- Capital-O Opinions joins
"In my view, the way to work against the stuff is to keep calling out the nonsense, factchecking the lies, and for companies to stop ignoring it and actually take a stand for once"
