A game doesn't have to be LOTR or DnD style to be fantasy. Game of Thrones is the most popular fantasy show right now and it's not much less realist than AC. Having a game/show mostly realist only amplifies the moments when it is not, while is in a complete fantasy experience you're desensitised by the endless magic.

>Let's see those fags at Jewbisoft try to build the Cathedral at Chartres
They aren't architects/builders, they are working in an even more technologically advanced medium. Furthermore, the Cathedral at Chartres isn't itself a work of art, it simply contains art. What makes art distinct from other sensory pleasures is that it crafts an illusion for the viewer to lose themselves within (e.g. in a painting, a movie scene, a game world). Whereas something like the Cathedral at Chartres isn't an illusion, the beauty of it is its literal structure, scale, and visual charm. Public structures like these are basically a city or civilisations equivalent of a body-builder's body, they spend lots of time and effort on creating a display of visual beauty that they can then show to all the others. Public monuments are status symbols demonstrating the taste and wealth of their creators, not illusions themselves.

You still didn't give a reason, you gave a strawman implying that I meant you would compare them solely on a metric that is only appropriate within one of them, rather than a metric that is fair to both.

It also seems the rest of the post was tl;dr for your little mind, or you would have seen why stuff like sculpture and monuments are not in the same category as the illusory arts.

Are you okay user?

>Based Romans knew the true way to manliness all along
Totally based. You see, it's a nuanced topic determining what is logically the most manly thing a person can do but in the end the only logical answer is indeed to shove your dick down another man's throat and make him swallow your seed.

The unparralelled manliness of this act comes from the convergence of two major factors of manliness.
1. Getting a blowjob is the ultimate form of sexual dominance and is therefore the manliest sexual act. The reason for this is that a person must CHOOSE to take your dick in their mouth without biting you, it can't be forced with nothing but physical strength like normal sex. This means that in order to get someone to take your dick in their mouth you must dominate them not just physically, but psychologically to the point that they basically belong to you.
2. Sexually dominating a straight man is harder than sexually dominating a woman.

Thus, it is true, the manliest and most powerful sexual act that any man can perform is to dominate another straight man to such a degree that they can rape his mouth without fear of retribution through biting or other attacks on his privates.

If it's handled very shittily, sure. If this were actually true then anything with exaggerated animation would instantly fail to suspend audience disbelief but that very obviously doesn't happen. As long as the medium's intrinsic logic isn't broken, disbelief can continue to be suspended.

There is no difference between the middle east today and the middle east a thousand+ years ago.

>The foulest Babylonian custom is that which compels every woman of the land to sit in the temple ofAphroditeand have intercourse with some stranger at least once in her life. Many women who are rich and proud and disdain to mingle with the rest, drive to the temple in covered carriages drawn by teams, and stand there with a great retinue of attendants. But most sit down in the sacred plot of Aphrodite, with crowns of cord on their heads; there is a great multitude of women coming and going; passages marked by line run every way through the crowd, by which the men pass and make their choice. Once a woman has taken her place there, she does not go away to her home before some stranger has cast money into her lap, and had intercourse with her outside the temple; but while he casts the money, he must say, "I invite you in the name ofMylitta". It does not matter what sum the money is; the woman will never refuse, for that would be a sin, the money being by this act made sacred. So she follows the first man who casts it and rejects no one. After their intercourse, having discharged her sacred duty to the goddess, she goes away to her home; and thereafter there is no bribe however great that will get her. So then the women that are fair and tall are soon free to depart, but the uncomely have long to wait because they cannot fulfil the law; for some of them remain for three years, or four. There is a custom like this in some parts of Cyprus.

Unironically a lie. Herodotus embellished most of the shit he wrote and ceremonial or "sacred" prostitution never happened. It's literally a mistranslation in Gilgamesh that got propagated. Just think of how retarded that custom would be irl.
