I had a lengthy argument an hour ago on the nature of quality—primarily of video games, but of things in general—and thought it worth sharing for further discussion. (Unrelated or irrelevant interjections or parallel topics have been omitted; I also split it into separate paragraphs for easier reading.)

It also made me remember a link on the topic I had once saved but not yet gotten around to look at; which I have now done, finding it to be a really good read: http://paulgraham.com/goodart.html

I agree that you can like a game that you think is objectively bad, and vice versa.

I disagree that you can use a Renaissance painting as part of an objective scale.
