Why didn’t they just make a separate womens soccer game? Yes I already know the answer but I would imagine sports games in general are heavily male dominated. I’ve played a lot of madden and mlb the show and have rarely seen women showing much interest in sports games.

Not true.

Male spaces are for everyone, and women's spaces are for women and autogynephiliac perverts.

Only 2% play sports games: https://quanticfoundry.com/2017/01/19/female-gamers-by-genre/

Females would rather play competitive FPS and racing games than sports ball. That lets you know just how much money companies like EA are throwing away to push a message instead of focusing on the (globally) built-in audience for football.

Let’s be real, the majority of “women” in these studies are troons

Yet another reason to stop this insane push for women into games they generally don’t play

Nah they'll just double down more on the pro-Feminism stance by... <checks notes> forcing women to do things they don't want? 🤔

<skips a few pages> Or by turning the frogs gay men into suicidal abominations "women" and pretending it's the same thing.

I don't play sports games because it's called going outside. I want to do cool shit in games not larp as a pro athlete

If we are being honest, the people who make up the majority of the sports games audience do also play it outside too. Mostly because the playerbases are almost entirely black or South American.

If not for Basketball Americans the NBA games would probably lose 90% of their audiences.

You need nine other people to play basketball, 17 others to play baseball, and 21 others to play soccer.

GOOD LUCK.

I like that study, I did find a bit strange how many girls were in MMO, even that 23% of WOW players were girls. That has a lot of question marks. I've played that game for many years and girls were rare in any guild I was in, no were near a quarter of players.

Average PVP guilds and average Raid guilds. I had chars in multiple guilds. There was no high pressure, at least not after Burning Crusade, I quit early in to WOTLK and came back in to MOP but I no longer felt that drive to be first at anything and in my opinion gear was kind of busted.

Although I had very few girls in the guild, most raids or even pvp had 0 girls. The one girl that sometimes joined was a RL friend of mine. Strangely enough I had more girl players in Vanilla then I did in Legion. I quit for good in BFA, I did not even reach max level with a character.

Of course this is just my own experience so clearly is not proof of anything. However the stats may be skewed, I never remember being in a survey so it may be affected by whom they interview and then not take in to account things like hours played or interest in playing. Just because you tried it once because your boyfriend was in to it does not mean you are an active player. I don't even know how you go about making such survey, how do you find the players to interview and select them in an arbitrary fashion?

In ancient times I remember that Blizz said something like 20-25% of PCs are female but that is meaningless since a lot of guys have female characters so the 23% girl players is very sketchy.

Im a fairly hardcore mmo player (2000 hours in ff14) and you are exactly right.

Its easy to find female lead guilds, usually one or two women with their friends and a fuckton of betas and orbiters. Maybe 3 dudes in the entire place that can actually play the game at or above "competent" level and they are just there by dumb luck, or because they simply fell in and never left.

These guilds constantly splinter, as the head female can never stand when someone else is getting the attention even for a moment, so they become two guilds and start over farming more betas and orbiters in a never ending pyramid scheme of simping.

In my 8 years playing the game, ive met lots of girls. I have never met a girl simply sitting at home playing the game wishing someone would play with her or spending time solo questing. Even if they start that way it doesnt last even a few weeks before they realize the power of the vagina and fall right into it.

That said. Half, or more, of MMo players presenting themselves as girls (not just playing female characters, but presenting themselves as female on the other side of the controller) are dudes.

I remember quite a few females when I played wow. Like laptopwilleat says, they generally avoided high level play as did I. I was in a guild like 50/50 gender split focused on just game world questing and group questing. There was no raiding or pvp really. The guild leader was an elderly woman from Canada haha. She was cool tho

The only good sports games are extreme beach volleyball and blitzball anyways.
