http://www.bizreport.com/2013/07/more-women-gamers-age-18-than-boys-age-17-or-younger.html Just thought it was interesting stats so thought I'd share. Wistrel
So as the stereotype of who a gamer is changes, how will that change the stereotype of what a gamer wants and looks for in games? I think we have more than a few of the over 17 F players here, what are your thoughts on that?
Interesting idea there Narfi. Will we be seeing tanned, muscular guys in future game instead of big boobed blond women ?
hmm, sure maybe play APB then post back, my way of thinking is that girls don't see a point in these video game's stuff not EU im on with steam here. It's just guys pretending to be girls.
My wife playes, (she is around L45-50 in her top combat professions(all natural)) there are a couple of RL women in my society, there are several RL women that fly for my transport company, EntropiaTransport.com, there are many well known women in the Entropia Universe and I know lots of couples that play (husband/wife, bf/gf, etc...) While the poll may be skewed more towards social gaming sites, I have no doubt that there is a significant female population even in Entropia.
From my experience not EU but other games I play, I have met a lot of female avatars who are guys in RL, Their are female gamers but not as many as guys. Women's brains are wired a little different from ours, even when you come across a real female gamer their less likely to use Skype or teamspeak.
