You see that, Charlotte Bronte? THAT'S HOW YOU WRITE A FUCKING LORE. Take your filthy "classics" and get the hell out of my sight till you can write on this level.

Yeah, how about you skip school altogether? That'll work. Study videogame lore instead.

You must be fun at parties.

And good job at implying video game based litterature can't be studied at school. Go ahead and shit on entire pieces of work because of their content, I'm sure no one will mind.

Noo, videogames should be studied in schools alright. Why, so many videogames address important social, psychological or political issues in a mature, well-written, intelligent manner.

I advise you to quit your school and go to some "videogame school".

So I can be more powerful than you.

Because knowledge is power. :)

You do realize that you're trying to bash video games while you are also playing the same video game, and also acknowledge that you read video game lore because you're browsing the section of the forums about video game lore right?

Also, one more thing, in "video game school", but also in the regular English language taught by schools, video game is considered two different words, it's not written as "videogame". I wonder what mature, well-written, intelligent educational system taught you that they were one word.

Knowledge sure is power my friend, couldn't have said it any better then that.

So, I was going to explain how enjoying a videogame doesn't mean I consider it a deep work of art that should be taught, and all that...... but then you came up with that bullshit about "video game" and you genuinely thought you were making a smart comment...... And I just felt sorry for you.

What's your point exactly? Many video games have lore, backstory for characters and many of them use it to adress and talk about social and psychological issues. Nobody says all of that is perfect - if a lore is filled with clichés and cringe writing, its quality is equivalent of that of 50SoG. But some players enjoy characters having flaws, opinions and interests and discuss about them.

Witcher III as an example. No, it certainly shouldn't become special class on university, but many quests and their stories are focusing on various socal points. Imagine in game there being conflict between traditional part of village wanting to protect and innovators who take drastic means to change something, and though for good of others, sometimes acting ignorantly. What is the difference between such thing being witnessed, read about and interacted with in form of quest in story-driven video game and it being read from a book?

One of the first books to talk about issues of future of AI/Clones was Rozum's Universal Robots. What is the difference between such issue being talked about in sci-fi book and it being shown in form of an installment of some sci-fi video game?

Maybe some day, buddy. Maybe some day your dream will come true.

But right now? Videogames and their stories are still as immature as they can get.

There's no point in arguing here, Ral. That guy'll never see when people are either joking or making a very good point. You'll just get angrier trying.

You still haven't explained how literature in video games is inferior to literature used in television, movies, or even a classroom. If your argument is that literature in a college is automatically superior simply because it is being used in a college setting, then you don't have much substance for your argument to begin with.

I'll explain you why.

Stop reading books altogether, unless it's the lore of videogame.

Let's see how that works out for you.

Then again, you already expressed that being in a college doesn't make something important, so, if that's YOUR experience of a college, you certainly aren't becoming the next neurosurgeon or lawyer.

Splision4 votes

You still can't explain why video game lore is inferior to a story that you have to read in a college course. The only point YOU keep making is that a story must automatically be superior if it is assigned to you in a class (because that's definitely what the author intended when they originally wrote the book).

Oh and if you are trying to become a lawyer or a neurosurgeon, then why are you wasting your time studying about Shakespeare or Edgar Allan Poe? Shouldn't you be studying your state constitution or your anatomy book? Reading Emily Dickinson isn't going to help you save a patient's life or protect someone from wrongfully going to prison.

Oh and btw plenty of people that have actually gone to a university can tell you that they have had to take courses that they feel are irrelevelent to their major or career path.

There's just one thing I have to say to all of your ignorant bullshit: please quit school and go study videogame lore. Please.

Splision1 votes

Maybe I should, maybe I shouldn't, but you still haven't explained to me why video game lore is inferior to something that you have to read in a college course. You also haven't explained how studying Edgar Allan Poe is necessary or relevant for saving a patient's life.
