the vast majority of human art lacks the real nuance and emotional impact real art carries.

It by-definition does not. The fact that you can’t see this I think makes you an inhuman monster.

The top 40 charts of music? 35 out of the 40 are pure crap, manufactured by people that are playing it by the numbers based on market studies, all in the pursuit of money. Now on top of that, imagine the majority of amateur fluff that people produce that are just low quality, or things that people make that aren't full of gravitas, nuance and actually emotionally impactful.

Are you comparing people's weekend projects to, I dunno, Marvel movies?

I like amateur fluff, you know? I look for niche indie games on steam or itch.io just because I want to see what people are up to—what fun ideas they have. That it seems to bother you they're not Casablanca is very strange to me.
