Every age has its storytelling form, and video gaming is a huge part of our culture. You can ignore or embrace video games and imbue them with the best artistic quality. People are enthralled with video games in the same way as other people love the cinema or theatre.
I think video games are going to completely take over storytelling in our society. Video games are not a fad.
I think it would be impossible to make a movie about video games if there wasn't some violence that we know from video games.
Video games offer violent messages, and even the sports video games include taunting and teasing.
You can even express movies and poetry using video games. For those reasons, I've decided to create stories through video games.
