what? Schindler's List is not a 'fun' movie but it's still hailed as a masterpiece. Fun isn't the only feeling art can invoke. 

Right, because when you want to sell gaming as a hobby to people, a common example used is, "it can feel like Schindler's List at times".

Shadow of the Colossus and Breath of the Wild could each be considered 'artistic' in their own right. I never had to feel bored playing either of them.
We are still talking about video games right?

You seem to have such a limited scope in terms of what can and cannot move you. Fun can certainly be a key element in games (it is the most engaging to most people), but it's not like it's the only way to stir someone's emotions. you're being rather narrowminded if you are actively trying to disregard huge chunks of the emotional spectrum from a medium. If you don't personally like games that aren't fun, that's fine, but don't pretend that's the only emotion a game can invoke.
