    poor gaming never got a chance to exist outside of capitalism, and i’ve always been sure that gamings shaky relationship with artistic merit is because of that. it only took like 50 years from games to turn from interactive media adjacent to toys, into nightmare gambling simulators overly tuned to take your money, with optional gameplay portion available.
