Hardcore gamer = someone who plays only cinematic grizzed white dude games and/or military fetishizing FPS

Casual gamer = anyone that is not a 15-25 yo male, and/or plays anything outside of the previously mentioned games, especially if those games are colorful.

So basically the gaming community is full of gatekeeping, misogyny, toxic masculinity and general chuddery. They make sure they're the loudest voice heard when anything about games is talked about, and won't be happy until all games a homogenous stream of bland, hyper-realistic but with a grey filter slog of mindless action with no heart or soul. And don't you dare force them to read any dialogue or story.

      if you mean people restricting themselves to "manly" games thats also a loud online minority, i mean nintendo still makes the most popular games out there and stuff like undertale has sold how many millions now? so saying the gaming community(tm) is "full of gatekeeping, misogyny, toxic masculinity and general chuddery" is hard to believe

            No I meant you're low effort, the bait was too obvious.

            That or you're either too young or haven't met enough capital G gamers shrug-outta-hecks gamergate is pretty well known at this point.

                I don't even mind trolls if they're funny, but it's always the same generic shit with our ones lately.
