The term "survival horror game" is interesting to me because of the implications of breaking it down. The term "survival horror" outside of a gaming context sounds strange, but I guess a "survival horror movie" or a "survival horror novel" could still exist. However, the implication of a "non-survival horror game" also interests me. A horror game where surviving is not the goal. Finally, there's the notion of a "survival game" detached from a horror context. Is Super Mario Bros a survival game? Is Soup Calibur IV a survival game? Is Metal Gear Solid a survival game? Of course, there are games where you cannot truly survive, like Tetris, but the term seems so open ended that it makes me wonder how "survival horror game" became the term to begin with and not just "horror game". Do you have any thoughts?

I feel as if studio ghibli films being reduced to their 'cozyness' would be tragic if not for the fact that it is a deliberate branding thing for them. from the ghibli museum to the revolving door of hot topic collabs, miyazaki and/or the people he puts in charge of these things are aware of how desirable the worlds within ghibli films are. even at that, how meaningful is the politics of howl's moving castle being motivated by miyazaki's outrage at the 2003 iraq invasion when you examine it alongside the actual text of the wind rises? what does the environmentalism of ponyo mean when faced with the massive amounts of waste generated by ghibli merch you can get at wal mart? i'm straying from the point here but
