Maybe it's not an endorsement of games, but condemnation of all other modern media?
Also, games have stories made for playing, when they try being films they become interactive films which is usually worst of both worlds.

Which is why I don't understand the obsession to adapt every single well performing game into a film or a series. It just doesn't work like that

The post is from a booktok reader, compared to the slop they digest even Heavy Rain is a mindblowing masterpiece

The bookstore near me has a booktok section and it's clear their audience is a bunch of female coomers.

Mmmm yes, exquisite exposition dump, madame
SOMA is the best sci-fi horror in all media though. Absolutely harrowing.

Eh the actual plot of SOMA could have been done way better as a book. Although it would need more characters to fill the void of wandering around.

Main character is legit r-slurred, has the concept of brain mapping explained to him multiple times and still doesn't get it, gets mad at being “misled” about his consciousness not transferring to the digital afterlife thing
Idk that took me out of it a lot

I thought that was intentional because of the brain damage. You're canonically playing as an r-slur who was only uploaded because of how r-slurred he is.

Replace vidya

From an artistic standpoint I'd agree with that statement, most modern novels and films simply try to ape acclaimed films and novels of the past and that warps their quality immensely, video games have this problem to a lesser degree due to being a newer medium, so yeah I'd say video game stories are in the upper of stories in a world where Infinite Jest is considered a good book.
