Can stories in games be considered a form of literature?

[Scurrybt]

I think they can if plays and musicals are considered a form of literature.

Does it really even matter?

Yes. They're not just literature, they're art. People who think otherwise, I've got a surprise for you. You're wrong, and I've got proof.

Good point

Definitely. One of the games I'm playing now uses stills instead of motion video for the cutscenes that are done in a watercolor format. Clearly done to save on money, but it comes across as a nice alternative to regular cutscenes.

I'm not the sort of guy to say "that's enough off topic for the day" but this is definitely enough off topic for the day.
I think I'm unsubscribing from this thread too.

I love how savage Socrate’s logical deconstructions are for the creed of the Assassins’s Brotherhood.

I think a good example would be The Witcher 3
