Comment on Why do people hate video games so much?

You may be hanging around the wrong people. I get the odd mild reaction from certain people when I mention videogames but usually because “girl gamer - does not compute…?” Most don’t care as long as we have other things to talk about.

I’ve never met anyone what was pro video game other than on the internet. Even people who do play games I know only do so on the DL because they know it is a social faux pas.

I mean… Those people you meet on the internet do exist outside your screen too. You just need to find them.

I went to PAX many years, only place ever met such people, but even then there many were board game only snobs. There are a lot of board game snobs in my city, but they generally hate video games for being ‘anti social’.

If nobody’s talking about their gaming, how would you ever know how many people game?
Be brave enough to be open about it, and you might be surprised how many people will join you.
