It's from Family Guy during a scene where one character says he doesn't like the Godfather because "it insists upon itself".

Basically that it seems self-indulgent and pretentious in a way that doesn't connect with you.

Most people probably wouldn't say that about erogames. They tend to be very "this is what you're getting".

I'm not sure I'm understanding this, but one game that comes to mind for writing i found pretentious was Blue Swallow, though I didn't give it much of a chance and the screenshots I'm seeing now look okay. Maybe it was just the opening that rubbed me the wrong way. I have little patience for prose that confuses rather than explains, especially at the start of a game.

Oh shit, that one. Yes.

It's a game that positions itself as a high stakes spy thriller, yet it allows you to spend an in-game year (or more) without any pressing objective whatsoever. Very thrilling, much spy!
