Adore them. Some of my all tike favorite games are derogatorily called "walking simulators". Dear Esther is a masterpiece, What Remains of Edith Finch is one of the best games of the last decade, and even simpler, more experimental titles like Bound (or the way older The Graveyard) can be mesmerizing. It's not a genre for everybody, that is certain, but not calling them games cand be the most arrogant and simple-minded statement from somebody who calls him/herself a gamer. It is funny how many jumped on Roger Ebert when he called out games as an art form, and the same people got completely lost in their own asses when it comes down to modern adventure titles.
