Social rejects stopped gaming?

no, they added the sexually active to its ranks
Nymeria said: That core gamer mentality is still niche and stigmatized with the stereotypes from the 1980s. Gaming expanded so much, especially in recent years with mobile titles that nearly everyone plays some from of video games. I could say I play video games and no one bats an eye. If I start explaining how excited I am about Last of Us Part II or going into the mechanics of Nioh, then it's confused looks and people wanting to change the subject. |
I came into the thread wanting to say this. Thanks, you already did it.
I grew up in the 90's and I don't remember that being a thing at least in my country, or maybe I never saw outside my gaming social bubble.
I know... my English sucks.
It's a new type of media,and is still young,but it will grown in respect with time.Kids who had played video games became adults who know how an interactive media can influence your life just as much as books, movies or theater.
When I was in primary school, everyone liked games. Nowadays, none of them plays games anymore, except for FIFA and sometimes GTA.
Even heavy metal has become more acceptable than gaming.
actually I don't remember that at all, and I was going through school in the 90's
it was even the reverse, as a ton of kids would want to hang out with me because I had a metric ton of consoles and games which they didn't.
so yeah... only in movies I saw that stereotype :)
I remember, and never really cared about this.
