NeoGAF & ResetERA - The Hilarious N̶e̶v̶e̶r̶e̶n̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ Splintering "Gaming" Forum Circus

The problem is ResetERA doesn't even recognize this. They believe the cooked "statistics" that says women make up 50% of the market.
I do think probably a high percentage of women do play vidya, particularly mobile games, but I'd guess most of the ones that do are not fanatic about it. They just do it to pass the time and generally see it as kind of a waste of time when you could be doing other things. Like, they're not thinking about the story, they just want to beat the next candy crush stage or get enough points to customize their characters with fancy clothes.

The thing is that someone that plays scrabble on their phone is not in the same realm as someone that plays Elden Ring on their gaming PC/console.
Someone that plays Fortnite for an hour a week is not on the same level as someone that plays Counter Strike 10 hours a day.

It doesn't stop there. I've seen questions like "do you have a system in your home?" count as being a "gamer." That is, if your partner or children play games you are now a statistic. It's all misleading. Any online lobby will show you how small of a userbase they are. Obviously they exist but are usually outnumbered 10 to 1.

And there are bigger titles that have large women userbase, like The Sims for example. But for the games ResetERA are typically discussing/complaining about, they are mostly male dominated.

Maybe actually support these games yourselves instead of crying about straight people not buying your faggot games?
Yeah you'd think if it was such a moral imperative for their community the games that do have explicit wokeshit would succeed because of the outpouring of support from places like Resetera. Meanwhile you have shit like Dustborn with double digit top players on Steam 2 weeks after it comes out. So weird, almost like the whole thing is performative for most people.
 
This dude popped up out of nowhere and has been nonstop making lesbian and tranny topics for a couple of months. He's basically like a child that just discovered faggotology.
Considering the way he types, I'm 70% sure he's also a new addition to some of the discords.
Spends the US evenings flooding the places with demented shit and talking about buying switchblades for home defense.

Don't have any screenshots right now.
 
Someone saw people complaining about teachers online, found the comments to be 'misogynistic'. So he came to complain about it on Era. It didn't go as planned.

Maybe it's a Firefox thing that my Resetera screenshots will have that bar in the middle of them when I save longer posts. But the covered text says "I remember one teacher we had would never teach us and instead just yell at us all lesson or make us copy from the text book. We were an ap class.

I remember the PE teacher saying super creepy things about the other student lady teacher who was just out of university.even at 15 I was like wtf."

The responses may surprise you.

(Don't know if 14 year old Royalan was overly sensitive and misinterpreted things that the teacher said as homophobic, or if he was so gay as a high school freshman that she felt the need to subtly say something.)

I have to say, Resetera understanding proportions, and not jumping to defend women/shit on men is surprising. Even a little heartening. OP didn't get shouted at (as he might have if he'd started a thread specifically to complain about female teachers), but it ended up just turning into people being fairly relaxed as they shared their teacher stories. Can't have that.

Never got an example of the misogynistic comments that impelled OP to create that thread.
 
So much for a safe space. I'm shocked.

But are you literally shaking?


Mom buys a PS5 for her kid, stats say she brought a PS5. In the real world do you ever hear a normie woman talking about videogames in a positive light?

Almost never.. Even ~90% of the so-called gamer ones never seem able to shut the fuck up about some core aspect of it they hate. I know they exists in some number but... 50%? lol no.

In my experience women want to immediately fuck me when they see my vast collection of Steam achievements and how many games I've completed all the sidequests for.
