Because he is a simp, probably to prove someone's point over Twitter. I mean, how many times he point out the male/female gap between games?

Thats 'why' I stop listening to him as soon as he stop to report numbers because 'hurts'.

Yeah, he can't just post sales numbers relevant to gaming. Always has some angle he trying to push and then he cries when folks point it out.
 
Nice, I fit in the statistics perfectly. I’m in my 30s and I’ve bought FF7R and plan to buy the deluxe edition of Stellar Blade day one :messenger_grinning_sweat:.

I’m so glad Japan and Korea are keeping gaming alive with these booba and peach games. We have to support them any way we can otherwise we will get nothing but games with women that look like the Fable “girl” :messenger_hushed:🤢

It's abundantly clear chicks are vastly in the minority for video games. It's irrefutable if you spend any amount of time in RL.

Yes. And if anyone needs data to support that... From the link I posted earlier*, women are the majority for only two genres: tile-based puzzle games (e.g., Candy Crush) and family or farming simulators. In those two genres, women comprise about 70% of the players.

However, for every other gaming genre (21 out of 23, per this survey), men are the majority, ranging from 60% to 98% of the audience. A few examples: FPS is 93/7 (male/female), Open World is 86/14, Action-Adventure 82/18, WRPG 75/25.

As expected, the market is almost entirely male dominated. It's a shame most modern games pander to the sensibilities of a female audience that doesn't exist.

100% indicated they would buy the Eve sex robot as soon as she's available.

50% said they didn't care about the skin suit making the game harder and claimed they would "git gud" for "the plot's sake"

Women tends to play simple or social or cute/appealing to them games.
MMO have higher than average male to female ratio.
And games that made efforts to tailor some of it content for women also enjoys higher than average ratio. Granblue (mobile) is an oldschoolish heavy grind jrpg. It has more female players than male players, because there are specific characters and stories tailored for women liking (and tailoring for women liking is not introducing female fat ugly gorilla but instead adding slim handsome men)

And further, the "female audience" they are catering to isn't even normal women, who I assume/hope comprise the majority of women, but rather a bunch of woke journalists, hypersensitive feminists, black female activists, and a tiny percentage of trans people -- most of whom don't play or like games to begin with...

I remember decades ago reading about how the Age of Empires games have a surprisingly large female audience.

There are plenty of women playing games. But they’re not interested in the “modern audiences” lame feminist shit.

Yes. The wiki article I quoted put it in more feminist terms, as you'd expect -- women are more interested in communication and relationships, men are more interested in violence, that sort of thing.

They mentioned a couple of exceptions. For instance, although most WRPGs are 75/25 male/female, Dragon Age Inquisition had about a 50/50 split.

Its interesting what had to be done to the Dragon Age franchise in order for it to appeal to women. Such a shame that Inquisition sold so poorly that it almost destroyed the entire franchise. The tale of that single game almost makes our arguments for us.
