a chart with the columns labelled "challenge purist", "entertainment neutral", and "experience anarchist", with the rows labelled "console purist", "platform neutral", and "media anarchist". the cells are labelled with various kinds of media, all finishing with "is a video game."(continued)

from left to right and then from top to bottom, the labels are: "dark souls", "gone home", "rpg maker", "dragon's lair", "a wikipedia race", "a wifi router configuration page", "a tabletop RPG", "a choose your own adventure book", and "a colouring book"

@SuricrasiaOnline What box would you put a VHS video game like the early Atmosfears in? Or the later, vaguely interactive, DVD releases?

@SuricrasiaOnline I'm so mad that I'm right in the middle and I just caught myself thinking "I guess a Wikipedia race sorta IS a video game..."

@SuricrasiaOnline entertainment/platform neutral but not both at once. Dragons lair and gone home are both video games, but a wikipedia race is not

@SuricrasiaOnline Hm. My gut rules require it to be a game, and to have its rules 'scripted' in a way that doesn't require players to figure the outcome out themselves. RPG Maker is iffy, but I'd be willing to call it a video game. Dragon's Lair, Dark Souls, and Gone Home obviously are. A Wikipedia race isn't, but if you wrote a simple browser extension that ran the timer and recorded the links taken, it could be. The only other iffy one is the CYOA books... I think *some* are, but not all.

@SuricrasiaOnline D&D clearly is a video game. I hate so much those mechanics. My cleric just spam fireball in fight and that's it, we won. What a gameplay.

@SuricrasiaOnline anarchist here. Hell, I'm in the "msoffice is a video game" camp (excel is SP, outlook is PvP).

@SuricrasiaOnline the thing about these chart memes is that it always feels like they're asking the wrong question. For me it's not classified by (x > a, y > b), but by x + y > a. So Gone Home and Dragon's Lair are both videogames, but a Wikipedia race isn't.It's a matter of distance from prototype examples.
