Female Gaming?

[Papa Liam]

So obviously, in most video games the male gamers often outrule the female gamers. However, I've seen some games with large female gamer populations that are only growing. What are some games with big population of female gamers? I'm just curious. (Hence my reason for posting in 'Off Topic'.)

I'd say DayZ is my first thought. I've met / been brutally murdered by some female gamers in DayZ SA.

That's sad.

There's lots on TF2. Whenever they go on the mic to tell someone to switch to Medic, you'll suddenly have a server full of Medics and people giving free items or sending friend requests.

And 90% are fake.

Well I'm sure some of 'em use voice changers to make them sound like a girl for dem tasty free benefits, but girls do actually play TF2 aswell.

Well, most are on Facebookgames and stuff, indiegames etc..

I'd say World of Warcraft has a high population of females.

Even though i have to admit i make a terrible experience with female Steamusers overall. Mostly.

World of Warcraft did have one of the highest numbers, last I checked. One in every 4 people in it was a woman.

I guess MMORPG's in general will have a higher number of women.

I call Lu Bu then.

Sarkessian is ridiculous but so are people making deaththreats towards here.

The worst thing is Gamergate, mens right activists... in the videogamescene.. right...

Um, nope. Gamergate started as a movement concerneced about ethics in gaming journalism. Then, as Feminazis inavded the scene, the movement had to evolve; so, it became centered upon protecting gaming against the malicious agendas of feminists. Now they are invading Heavy metal, and the same process is occuring.

Good joke broski. Indeed they started about ethics in gaming journalism, but you have actually no idea about females in videogame development.

Today those males are making a rampage towards those females, deaththreats and much more than you actually think. Sexism at it's best.

Like most jobs lesser payment, sexual harassment, more work to do and absolutely no respect.

And the great man vs woman thing sprouts anew upon this cursed land under the vigil of asexual angels and cute cupids.

Not joking "broski", but if you want one, a mirror is required. :) " but you have actually now idea about females in videogame development. " I'm assuming you meant to say 'no', and your statement was quite vauge. "Like most jobs lesser payment" Several studies have deteremiend this is because of womens menstraul cylces, and that this amounts to about 14 percent of the wage gap. Not to mention the fact that women, on average, don't work as much as men and thus do not contribute equal amounts of results; not saying it's right, but employers favor inidiviudals who work more, majoritly who are men. Also, women have children, and get materinty leave.

" sexual harassment " Again, very vauge. You also claim women in the video game industry don't get respect. I've yet to read a single article or anything saying women devs= crap because of their gender. I think you need to read more a bout "Feminism". BTW, If you wanted an argument you got one.

Mens right activist at it's best. If women work as much as men f.e., women still get lesser payment. It doesn't matter.

I am not a feminist at all, just you don't seem to have no proofs or anything at all. Atleast i don't have to be a feminist in the US. Third world countries have a big right, like voting, working and stuff.

I'm done with you. I'm actually shocked how offensive you are.
