Have you ever played To The Moon? The Walking Dead?Those are not games with things to 'win'. The closest you got is...To The Moon: Fulfilling a dying mans dream to experience landing on the moon before dying, while repairing his love life.The Walking Dead: To protect a young girl named Clementine and watch her grow up, see the horrors of survival come out the other side stronger for it, but hopefully still caring and compassionate.A more accurate term would be "Interact".You Interact with the world, you interact with the environment, you interact with the characters.You experience it, you make choices. That's the power that Video Games have that Movies and Books don't, interaction.And this exactly the "Not respected as an art form" thing I was referring to. You're choosing to downplay it as a game, rather than see it as an art form. As a result you are getting offended by the topic being in a Video Game, rather than being able to enjoy it like a movie based on the same topic.For example, let's look at TV Shows. Keyword: Show.Does the Holocaust sound like a fun show to you? No, and the public would be outraged. Don't act like it's some sort of injustice that the industry's name makes it sound trivial.

It's a marketing problem, not some sort of injustice against video games. Dress up your holocaust video game as an "interactive visual experience" or something and you're home free. Problem solved.

Whatever, though, I'm out. Have fun with your echo chamber, guys.
