No, not it at all.
I'm looking for a return to the roots because I sense that the roots were better. However, it doesn't stop me from looking at a modern game like Uncharted and think "wow, that's a game with character". Nintendo's Mario has been emasculated in my book, so no this is not nostalgia, but a judgement over the current state of the game and its art direction.
Games and movies may be two different things, but that doesn't stop both from seeking to evoke certain fundamental emotions with the human being that's experiencing them. On the same note, art direction and music are two things that games and movies share strongly in common. Script is another case, and I've addressed that repeatedly in this thread.
So if there's a judgement that's clouded, it's yours, and I will do what I can to clarify, but my experience with you is that you are hard of understanding, no offense.
