Glad to see the gate keeping came with us.

I’ve played wow (MMOs tend to be popular with women, my guild has several women), overwatch, and am playing diablo now. Call of duty just looks kinda boring to me. I also play alot of single player games.

I almost exclusively play single player games or multiplayer games with friends I know in real life. I’ve had some bad experiences with online gaming and they are often way too stressful for my liking.

Yeah same, my friends list has been cultivated over many, many years. I don’t use voice with randos usually.

I can totally see why we’re more attracted to MMOs. Even male players are playing as women so it’s way easier for us to blend in. It’s also not really voice reliant so there isn’t an indication that we are women. Along with just typically having way more content we can do solo
