The only people who can make art are those who understand the human condition, which pretty much rules out trust fund babies like Phil Fish and most other indie game makers

Not even that far, it just turns out that different mediums have different strengths and weaknesses at reflecting the human experience. If film is best said to be about actions, literature about thought, music about intensity, and comics about archetype, then video games are broadly speaking about doing. Most critics aren't experienced enough with games to have taken the time to see the benefits of that, whereas it's much more obvious on the face of other media.

I don't know about all that, but I have had fun playing games that someone told me was horrible. That's the point. Have fun. Who cares what anyone else says.

Well yeah, some people also like to read lovely fan-fiction or watch lovely Z-list movies or find the dumbest albums they can. That's a perfectly valid way to experience art.

Basically I'm saying if your family was well off enough that you could actually play videogames as a kid then you're not poor enough to make art

That's what I mean. No one can tell you what you think art is, so why should we listen to assholes who think they can? I think Resident Evil is art. Resident evil 4 is art.

Anything that requires an audience to be what it was intended to be is art. You're confusing art and "high art"
