I had no idea that "game movies" existed. I'm going to have to watch a few. I was obsessed with playing games as a kid. I'm now 40 and every so often get excited about playing a game I see (most recently Deathloop) but when I actually play it I am underwhelmed by the experience and never play again after the first sitting. The only exceptions are arcade games that I don't need to invest heavily in and are a mindless escape. On the other hand I still enjoy watching the reviews and gameplay videos. I think what is lacking for me in the playing experience is that the actual gameplay never feels novel or interesting to me and usually feels like a huge amount of drudgery to extract the core ideas and highlight experiences. Open world games are overwhelming to me as I can't stop thinking about the real-life opportunity cost of the time I'm spending meandering around (strangely I don't worry about the opportunity cost when reading books...). What I enjoy from just watching is experiencing the ideas and aesthetics in a more streamlined fashion. You might say that I should just stick to movies and books, but I honestly believe games are a unique art form with great promise, so I'll keep revisiting!
