After taking a long hike through the release hype...I don't really have anything much to add. Except, really, that I think a game can be in a sense artistic. It can be a window to another world, and that world can be anything you want it to be. What's happened over the past few years is that we have also opened a window to the soul of liberal/SJW types, who were blackpilled by Trump's election and have proceeded to shit on anything percieved as good (or at least associated with white males) afterwards with renewed venom. My theory on their state of mind is that if they're not happy, we can't be happy either. TLOU2 took 7 years to make; I wonder if anything changed during the production after fall of 2016. Wouldn't be surprised one bit if Neil jumped off the deep end at that point.
That being said, if you're looking for a game that I personally consider to be art, I humbly recommend
Hylics 2. It's the kind of sequel where there's more of everything there was in the first game and it's better, and probably has some of the most unique animation in gaming today (being, basically, a combination of claymation and filters). Is it surrealistic and weird? Sure. But it's
also creative and unique in its presentation, and is the work of 1 guy - who in my opinion deserves the money for the work he'ss done.
It comes out in 2 days and I couldn't be more excited! Hopefully some people might get this instead of TLOU2.
