    A much more interesting study would be separating the gamers from the Gamers.

    That would require you to define a Real Gamer, which would be divisive by design.

    It’s an exercise in nutpicking.

      Normally I would agree… But there is a seriously real difference between someone who plays csgo dota and hoi4 vs someone who plays animal crossing splatoon and peak.

      Its fundamentally two entirely different demographics which no over lap. Both are gamers but only one set are “gamers”.

      Anyone who’s been around long enough knows how fast the gap between the groups are.

        Yeah I have no idea why you lumped first person shooter players, moba players, and 4x players in the same category. Talk about fundamentally different demographics.

        Edit: by the way, I love the Endless series (Legends, Space 2) and love Animal Crossing. I also have 5000 hours in Tarkov. Peak is also fun.
