The Politics Of Asking For Apolitical Games
Newsflash: games have been political this whole time.
Highlights
- Games are inherently political due to the biases of their creators – it’s impossible to be truly “apolitical.”
- The idea of “apolitical games” is complex – it’s not as straightforward as it may seem.
- Get ready for a challenging discussion – this topic is a doozy!
“Have games always been this political?” Absolutely! It’s impossible for any piece of art in any medium to be truly “apolitical” since all games are made by people and people have an inherent political bias built into them.
“Well, then why are so many people calling for ‘apolitical games’?” The answer to that question is a lot more complicated than it might seem. Welcome back to class, this one is going to be a bit of a doozy.
