"You neglected to mention the bit where I say in regards to choosing a dialogue option: "If we call that gameplay, we might as well call choose-your-own-adventure books games as well, but those are books and not games." Was that line to inconvenient for you to debunk?"
If you put them on a medium like a game is, then yes you could call them a game. It depends on how you parse the definition of a game. I mean, those telltale "games" are to me a choose your own adventure novels more or less but people call them games. Heck you could call all video games choose your own adventure novels for the most part if you wanted to. So no, that wasn't to hard to "debunk" as you put it but i'm not debunking anything. I'm just arguing that if a company doesn't want their product to be streamed without prior consent (game, audiobook, novel, art piece, whatever) it is in their right to ask of that. I think it is odd as consumers to say, "well I bought this so I can do the whatever the hell I want with this medium", which, as far as I'm aware, has been shown not to be the case.
