If you stop playing the huge AAA games and start playing smaller ones, you see another solution: lower prices for games that can be finished in an amount of time that fits into the busy life of an adult, and very often a grant from a national art fund.

Not for American games, of course, we basically destroyed the National Endowment for the Arts, thanks a lot guys.

I prefer art not selected by the government.

"Finishing" a game is a weird concept. I don't know anyone who finished chess.

Small games aren't necessarily cheaper than big ones; it depends on popularity to sustain a low unit price.

That's not even remotely how most art grants work though? The selection process in most (democratic) countries is quite detached from the government.

Chess doesn't have a narrative arc - unless I've been playing it wrong

And the King, having vanquished his foe at great cost, surveyed the empty field and muttered: "It matters not, for in the end the claw chooses who will go and who will stay".
