You can see the gender of the player, when you go to chat boards
When you go to the Battledome chat board most of the players are males
When you go to the customization board, most of the players are females
(And then there's the attention seeking assholes who call themselves "other" but we don't talk about those)
Funny lol
That's not to say guys don't customize or girls don't battle. Most players do both. But its clear who has greater interest in what.
Of course the people in charge of neopets would be in denial of this though, considering they are extremely woke
These kind of stats completely skew gaming and are the reason that devs are trying to pander to normies who have zero interest beyond some specific features they mess around with exclusively. Same goes for all the skin collecting addicts out there, none of these 'gamers' play video games. Real gamers abandon these games and then these are all that's left which makes the devs think that's all they need to do in order to attract customers. Then they wonder why their sales are tanking hard with newer releases.
Yes, the banana game has been getting into my head rent free again and I've been thinking about the maths that the devs are likely looking at given they track fucking everything now.
