MODERATORS
Or those players are the most likely to make a character that matches them. Historically RPGs have the highest percentage of women playing outside of life sims. Also, queer people esp trans people tend toward RPGs over other genres. Cis het white man still might be the biggest demographic though, even if it isn't the majority like it is for games like Total War or Civ
Yeah, I think what's happening here is less that gamers are overwhelmingly boring, and more that the small minority of overwhelmingly boring white cishet male gamers are effectively voting as a block, because there's a zillion ways to be creative, but only one way to be as boring as possible.
That's probably the most succinct way to put it
Oh yeah good point. That is another possibility. 🤔
