A rebuke gladly taken (Gaming)

by SonofMacPhisto , Friday, February 21, 2014, 11:12 (3928 days ago) @ Cody Miller

There's a lot of ego in art that doesn't translate as art becomes higher.

Do we hold up folks like Ken Levine because they are actually awesome or because they are good enough to be idolized, and therefore provide our egos with a deperately desired facade of artistic respectibility?

Or, in other words, games are art cause Bioshock lolz.

Maybe Bioshock is just pretty good, and Ken Levine is a realtively talented asshole who just used the closure of his studio, and the distruptions to the lives of 100s of people, as cover for his new sexy artistic boner inducing project?
