That is a good point. In the latest one I feel like all of the protagonists were all cartoonishly evil rich people and the story, which was from their point of view, was sympathetic to them.
So the balance point here is are the aestetics fun enough to let you enjoy watching the idle rich live the way they think they do.
I personally find the mindset alien enough that it is intresting to visit. But, I also find the artistry pleasant enough that probably does alot of the work.
I can see your take being completely valid.
Some video games are not art. We didn't possess the language to understand this till we had to explain how some video games are just gambling with extra steps. Other video games are art that sucks. Which makes it hard to analyze. Some are sports, which can produce art in the playing but is not itself sufficent to be called art.
Gamers being generally terrible will not be able to verbalize their emotions on thrbmatter unfortunately
