I think you may have misunderstood my intent of discussing "no true games". It's not that AA makes a game less of a game, that's a wild take.... But that when I'm playing a game where I need any sort of reaction speed or, especially framerate, AA is not only resource hungry (ESPECIALLY on older games/hardware) that leads to less fps, but that it also decreases visual intelligibility of a game when in motion by having it never be crisp and perfect. Whereas slow or non moving game cameras look more "photoreal" which is not a quality that benefits the playing of a game, and is generally strongly associated with selling people on looks and visual fidelity over fun game-content.
