  I really enjoyed my time at GDC this year. I especially enjoyed
  getting to meet so many of you at the MUD-dev dinner and the BBQ.
  My biggest regret is that time didn't allow for face-to-face
  discussions with everyone, but what conversations I did have were
  quite informative and profitable. Of these, perhaps the most
  interesting were my conversations with Dave Kennerly (Nexon), whom I
  found to have a level of intelligence and experience belied by his
  quiet demeanor and youthful appearance. It is, therefore, with deep
  respect and humility that I wish to challenge something that he said
  and that I've heard echoed elsewhere around the development
  community.
  
  Really, my goal here isn't to prove the statement wrong. I doubt I
  could accomplish this even if I wanted to do so. Moreso, I'd like
  to see the idea discussed and expanded and perhaps offer a different
  perspective. As I recall (and please feel free to correct me if
  I've totally missed the core of the concept), the statement went
  something like this:
  
  "Fun is the primary and key component of games."
  
  At this point, it should be readily apparent that I've set for
  myself a pretty daunting task that I should propose to disagree with
  this statement in the slightest. Dave certainly was demonstrating
  both his intelligence and experience in making the statement and I
  am no doubt calling my own faculties into question by dissenting. I
  gladly accept the challenge, but lest I lose before I've started, it
  seems I need to discuss a few terms and their definitions.
  
  Term definitions are never merely a caveat. They often go to the
  very core of any such discussion. It should come as no surprise
  that they are important here, for if fun is in the very definition
  of games (as I suspect it may be), the discussion is over before it
  begins. Please humor me here while I attempt a clumsy sidestep. In
  order to allow the discussion to continue, consider the rest of this
  article as either (A) an attempt to expand the definition of games
  or (B) an appeal to consider the possibilities for a medium of which
  games are only a subset. (You'll also note that this may nicely get
  me out of having to really address the statement at all. Oh well.)
  To avoid confusion, I'm going to use the term interactive
  entertainment. I'll let you decide whether this is the same thing
  as a game or not based on your choice of either A or B above.
  
  The perspective I'd like to present goes as follows:
  
  - Prose-based entertainment (a book) does not necessarily have fun
  as the primary and key component.
  
  - Stage-based entertainment (theatre) does not necessarily have
  fun as the primary and key component.
  
  - Screen-based entertainment (a movie) does not necessarily have
  fun as the primary and key component.
  
  - So why must interactive entertainment have fun as the primary
  and key component?
  
  In fact, I'll go so far as to say that the extent to which each of
  the other forms of entertainment explores subjects that go deeper
  than fun is often understood as an indication of the maturity of
  that form of entertainment. Furthermore, the extent to which a
  particular work explores deeper subjects is often seen as an
  indication of the level of maturity of that particular work. What
  does interactive entertainment have to offer that can be compared to
  something like Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, Coppola's The Godfather,
  or Shakespeare's Hamlet?
  
  Look at our demographics. Our audience often ends up being very
  similar to those persons we might expect to read something like The
  Hardy Boys. But we seem to miss that the content defines the
  audience as much as the other way around. And the medium doesn't
  really define either. It would be ludicrous for us to look at
  Dixon's successful series and assume that books must be for young
  boys, but that's exactly how most of the world views interactive
  entertainment. Could this not stem from an insistence inside the
  industry that fun is primary? Doesn't this keep us from taking
  ourselves as seriously as we should? How can we then expect others
  to give to interactive entertainment the sort of credit it deserves?
  I don't think that sales figures alone can give us this kind of
  legitimacy or it would already be ours. We'll be legitimate when we
  can proudly and confidently answer the question asked at the end of
  the former paragraph.
  
  I didn't really want to make this simply another debate over fun vs.
  art, but perhaps such is unavoidable. For me, art per se is not so
  much the issue. Rather, it is the artful application of an expanded
  palette of content. Why rule out certain colors simply because they
  are not seen as fun?(*) Do not may good paintings have both light
  and dark hues? I enjoy experiencing all sorts of entertainment,
  including that which is compelling, intriguing, interesting,
  dramatic and even tragic. Surely there is much interaction which
  can be very entertaining while not fitting neatly into the fun
  category. This is not to say that I don't believe that interactive
  entertainment should be fun. For those out there working on games
  that are fun, I say Great! Bring 'em on! Rather, I don't think
  that all interactive entertainment must be limited to only that
  which is fun.
  
  It is said that the Artist gives to each day, "lovingly, its part of
  pain or pleasure. Mingling toil with peace and rest."(**)
  
  The art is not in the pain, pleasure, toil, peace, or rest, but in
  the mingling.

  * Perhaps a poster called Treacherous stated this better on a Lum
  the Mad thread regarding Bartle's article on permanent death. The
  thread can still be found archived at
  http://www.mud.co.uk/richard/lthread.htm. I mention this because
  I feel it would be bad form to pass the illustration off as
  entirely my own, even though I have a slightly different take on
  it.
