Some anecdotal bits from this female player. The two shooter games that really appealed to me when I was getting into gaming on the N64 were Perfect Dark (female protagonist) and Get Force Gemini (1/3 playable characters was female). I played those for hours and hours. The only other shooter series I’ve been…

That’s super cool As a Sociologist who specializes in games research, I love reading stuff like this. I gotta admit I personally know a lot more women who play stuff like FFXIV and then games like 7 Days To Die.

Can’t romance best girl Tali if you don’t play broshep.

More female protagonists would be welcomed, but in my opinion, less jerky male protagonists would help too. Generic muscle packed alpha soldier guys make games boring. Doesn’t help that they all seem to share a personality too.

A completely unscientific and anecdotal survey amongst my female friends leans heavily towards Bioware for singleplayer gaming, including Mass Effect and Dragon Age.

Sounds delicious and artery hardening. Might actually get me to like coffee.

Another way Japanese people relax in confined spaces:

This what they look like to Godzilla:

You can ask offline Minecraft the same thing!

This is exactly why I didn’t like Fallout 4 that much. Too much emphasis on the creation mode. What’s the point of building and decorating bases and making contraptions if it’s a single player experience?

Honestly I played the game despite the negative reviews. After about almost 2 weeks of play I found myself bored. Already had the best ship, all the upgrades, best gun...etc. I had looked at SOOOO many worlds that it all looked the same. Animals and plants. Scanning stuff was the only fun thing left. But even that…
